Karen Hunter Ellis's Summer

Karen had an alright summer, she told me. She went commercial fishing for the first time, and she helped Raymond Amos. She said that it was an exciting experience and that she had fun. This summer she did not go camping but she picked berries for her cousins and also for herself. She also went to Anchorage to visit her mother. When she returned, she went down the river with a boat. And then on August 15, her daughter Alicia started to walk, which was very exciting to see.

On August 29, she got married to Richard Ellis. The wedding was at 3 P.M., at the city hail, and everyone was invited. It looked very pretty in the hall, the way it was decorated. They also had the reception and a fiddle dance at the hail. It was fun..
