Utena

I was 2 years old when e moved to Utena- my brother George was 4. My Dad worked for Lithuanian Governament- he was a CONTROLER os 2 states- Utenos and Zarasu. Both states were full of small lakes, forestts- lots of resort places. Town of Utena was small, I guess 10000 population and very muck Class concheus. PONAI- and lower class servants and town people. We rented a house on the lake- it was fun during the Summer to swim and during the winter to scate and go down the hill with the sled. My Dad had this big , tabagen style , sled made for us- we used to hitch our Dog, Rex, in to it. George went to Gimnazija after he finished lower school, which was in an old estate building, with lovely park around it. We used to play cowboys and Indians there. George always had his friends in to play- and I tried to fit in with the oys.

 From early on I was very atletic, ran, swam, climbed trees.

 Winters were long- we played a lot of cards, games, Produced plays. 

My first Girl Scout Camp was when I was 7 - for 2 weeks, in Zarasai woods. Next time about that....
