| In the home of Kobets', Ol'ha Mykhailivna, born 1941. This is the summer house which is separate from the main khata and will be used primarily by the grandparents, namely Ol'ha Mykhailivna and her husband. The house has many interesting traditional features: dirt floor covered with fragrant grasses, a large bench next to the stove for sleeping. This is also the area where Ol'ha Mykhailivna places her grandchildren whom she watches all day while her daughter-in-law works at the store, one of the few salaried jobs in the village. Also note the rug on the wall and the benches.
