On our travels through Michigan and Wisconsin, we stopped at a small town called Marquette, Michigan, population approximately 21,000.
Since we were just “driving through” I didn’t think we would see anything noteworthy but I was wrong. I’m always interested in learning more about Midwest living. Â So, guess what I found?
Do you know what this is?
Yes, it’s a fish cleaning station. I had never seen one before so this was a first for me. I like “firsts” as it means I’m still learning.
This station came with very explicit directions ~ good to know the head of the fish must go in first. Â (laughing)
Hmmm … this doesn’t sound like it’s much fun though ~ clean up all blood? Well, I eat fish but I’ve never cleaned one or seen one cleaned before.
Does one use a special knife to cut the fish into pieces?
I’ll have to make a mental note to find a fish cleaning station while it’s in use ~ now those would be some nice pictures.
Here’s a view of the area right behind the cleaning station.
The picture below is of a Marine TraveLift for boats and is used to lift the boats out of the water so they can be worked on or cleaned.
After we left the Lower Harbor, we drove around town and I spotted an old church and had to take a few pictures. Â The colors on this rotunda are beautiful.
Look at the detail …
Old churches are so beautiful.
Small towns have a lot of history in them, don’t they?
