James Edison's Hard Working Summer!

:

JAMES EDISON'S HARD WORKING SUMMER!
All summer James Edison worked hard. He did a lot of commercial fishing. Commercial fishing is a hard job to do throughout the summer.

During commercial fishing he also did a lot of different things. He built a fish rack to hang fish for food and also brought Julia Papp out berry picking.

At the beginning of August he started working at PHS on the new well that was being built here in Marshall. Since he started working there he has been getting up early every day.

During his free time he went out hunting for birds. As he continued to work September came along. And you know what September means. It means moose hunting season! Every day since it has started he has been going out and trying to catch a big bull moose. That's what I call hard work!
