Rebuilding the Grave | Alaska: The Next Generation

·Nov 10, 2024

This is exactly how I'm going to build to what I'm putting. I'm gonna knot these four by fours and splash them together to splash. Just same thing as this straight here, this is the same kind of cross we're going to build.

We are Russian Orthodox. Kodiak Island used to be part of Russia. Our church is over 100 years old, and when I was a kid, my dad worked in the church. He was the person that lit the candles. It's been many a year since I've done everything up here in the graves. I don't really like to go to funerals because I've never really dealt with the past very well.

Building the cross and the box for my dad's grave makes me feel a little more at peace. My dad passed away, and that was pretty... um, that's the last time that grave was ever really nice. It's already rotten, the cross, well, and I feel that it's all the time to put one together and show a little more respect under the elders that were here before us.

All right, I got a good strategy, something good to follow. No excuse in growing up with my dad working in the church was one of my greatest experiences of becoming what I'd be coming now. Because all the subsisting is all brought down from my dad. He was a man of all trades, and that's where I learned a lot of what I'm becoming. I wish I would have done it a long time ago.

This is done. That's gonna go up on the grave and just put your flowers, whatever's going to grow inside of it. We're gonna paint it, and it's very heavy put together. Now I'm gonna build a cross. The people in the world have to start living in the harmony of nature. We have to start preserving our land, the rivers, and the ocean.

All right, you guys finally came. We need, we're going to start building the cabin that's in a tree. We can, okay, we have to get started today at our fish camp where we're building a foundation for our cabin. I have my grandson, son of Boy, and Patrick for help.

We're building the family cabin. We've thought about this for so many years to have a cabin to come back to where we could be warm, light the stove, no more being cold out in the frozen tundra. It’s 16 feet wide and 20 feet long—that's how big the house is going to be.

Okay, yeah, okay, let's go get the rest. This cabin is an all-year-round safe haven for our family. We can just open the door, turn on the light, and put fire in the stove. It's just an instant fortress. Lift this and put it right there.

I am so grateful for Patrick and Cena Boy for building it up, putting it together. I'm really blessed to have those two boys coming along really well, and I'm happy. I'm happy about it. Thank you.
