Who knew it could be such a pretty drive to the Island Exchange?
That's the traditional name for the Island Landfill. Thanks for the photo Kathleen Dixon! 
Some lovely colors are developing...but one must know where to look...who knew the leaves could be turning so splashy down a driveway?
Who knew colors could seem even better on a cloudy day? Thanks to the homeowner for allowing me to share....
and then there's the dredging project, who knew...
and the wheels go round and round... 
Who knew there could be so much commotion on Lobdell Point Road? Sounds like the Dredging Project in Detroit Harbor has started. This past week lots of trucks have been barreling up and down with dredge tailings from the ferry channel to the disposal dump mid-island.
As I walk, I usually see about 8 trucks in 30 minutes. They will haul 6 days a week until they are done which could be the end of the year or into 2014, approximately 10000 truck loads. It's a 5.3 million dollar project...assistance has been obtained through a state Harbor Assistance Grant.
According to an article in the Door County Advocate, this is the first major dredging work since 1939.
The barge unloads the tailings into the waiting trucks at the Potato Dock. Thanks to Cathy Meader for these last two photos.
An official "start"ceremony sponsored by Foth, the firm that is contracted to serve as the project engineer, will be held tomorrow/Tuesday at 11am at the Ferry Dock.
Who knew the colors could be getting kind of interesting this soon on the wiggly road to Northport?
Another sign of Fall... coming this Thursday.
Harvest Weekend is right around the corner... who knew?
Have a great week!
