A Construction Worker's Summer

Ozzy Anderson is originally from Anchorage. He is a carpenter, and he works on the new houses that are being built here. He first came to Marshall in the beginning of September. This is his first time on the Yukon River, and so far he enjoys being here. He likes Marshall, but he doesn't like the rainy, wet weather. He likes to go to different places, but he gets homesick once in awhile. He said if he had a chance to come back to Marshall and work, he would. Ozzy has also worked in Mc Grath, which is along the Kuskokwim River. This was about five years ago.

When he has free time here, he likes to watch T.V., read books and eat. He said he was going to go on a boat ride this weekend, and he is looking forward to it. Ozzy says he'll be leaving Marshall in December, or after he is done with his job. He likes working, but he doesn't like the rainy weather.
