Finish It Up Friday- Five Random Offerings

Thank you all for sticking with me

as I go through my files and try to 

clear them up with my 

Finish It Up Friday posts.

Living in Green Bay, Wisconsin
means that a lot of life revolves 
around the bay itself.
We are lucky enough to live on the bay-
just a couple of miles out of port
so we enjoy all the water has to offer.
Everyone loves being on the water-
although I am content BESIDE it and not on it.
I don't have very good luck with boats.
I am known as 
The Boat Jinx.
Seriously.

Well, here is ONE boat I won't be jinxing because
this baby won't be going anywhere soon.
That being said- I love the way it looks here 
on the rocks by the shore.

I love the mornings here.
The sun rises on the front of my house 
so that the front rooms are bright and warm
But the magic is on the back side of the house.
I can see the sun's progress as it comes up
over top of the house  
and hits the shore across the bay from us.
It is peaceful and lovely.

This time of year the last of the big ships

come in and go out of  port
before the channel shuts down for winter.
This is one of last few ships of the year.

See this "thing"?
Can you guess what it is?

It's a floating duck blind.
There is a boat underneath that and several
decoys flocked around it.
I always feel awful when I hear the guns go off
and know they have shot some of  the ducks.

Know what else is big in our area
that is also connected to the water?
FRIDAY NIGHT FISH FRIES.
They are held at every tavern, supper club 
and restaurant.
This is the offering from
Bourbon Street in Green Bay

Most places serve the same menu.
Deep fried perch or haddock, coleslaw, fries,
a slice of onion and buttered rye bread 
with tartar sauce on the side.

You can also buy fish 
for your home aquarium, too, you know.
However,
you won't get any FISH at WALMART today.
Nosirreebob!

Guess there is 
NO DINNER tonight!

You all have a great Friday and don't take 
your fishing pole to Walmart today...just sayin.........
