Decade of the Pasty Cam on this day ^{Printed on Recycled Internet}

Which two years in the decade review had breakwalls?

2004 & 2008

2008 and mentioned on sign in 2004

Early Bird ties are becoming quite frequent :o)

WOW - my first early bird! It's going to be a good day!

Good morning! Fabulous pictures this morning!

Wishing my hubby, Mr. Deb, a very happy birthday today!!!!!

Those apples do look good.

Mr. Deb Happy Happy birthday. Keep it up and you will catch me.
Gene

Happy birthday Ron.

Happy Birthday Ron. It's your day, tell Deb you get anything you want today. LOL

Happy birthday to you, Happy Birthday to you, Happy Birthday to Ron- Happy Birthday to you, and many more.

Hey Mr. Deb,
Everyone feel free to join in...you all know the tune!
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday to you,
Happy Birthday dear Ron,
Happy Birthday to you!

I sang it in my head Ron. Hope that counts. A very Happy Birthday
to you.

Happiest Birthday Ron! I hope Deb has something fun planned for your 29th birthday. Have some cake for me.

Happy Birthday Mr. Deb. Remember birthdays are good for you. The more you have the older you get. :o)

Could you please tell me which breakwater the 2004 picture is taken at? I can't remember ever seeing that sign.

Also, that barn looks like one I saw on the Chassell side when we took the Keweenaw Star boat tour this month. I remember commenting how cool it was. Could somebody tell me if this is the same one?

Thanks for the birthday wishes and songs everyone! We had a nice dinner at Fred Lobster, endless shrimp is not always a good thing. I'm sorry to say you got the age wrong Cindy, I turned 31 today. I think it's required that I stay 2 years older than Pennie.
Thanks again everyone!
Mr. Deb
And I'm still waiting for the answer to my question from a long time ago. How many pasties do you need to cook before you get enough drippings for gravy?

Happy B-day Ron! Hope it was a great one!

Chuck


P.S. How's the shoulder holdin U.P.?

Happy Birthday, Ron. Hope it's been a great day for you. 31 sounds good to me.

Deb S -

That's the sign on the breakwater in the Upper Harbor in Marquette.

Hello all. for Deb S. The 2004 picture was taken at the Upper Harbor breakwall in Marquette. It's there to remind people how deadly the breakwall and Lake Superior can be.

Thanks Uncle Chuck and Charlotte! Had a pretty good day.
The shoulder is still the same, not holding UP much of anything.
Mr. Deb

Thanks for the answer to my question about the breakwall guys. No wonder I've not seen it as I've not been there. Yes, Lake Superior waves are nothing to mess with. I've seen somebody die in that lake and it's not something I'd ever want to see again. It happened out at Little Betsy Uncle Chuck!

I've walked out on that breakwall. It doesn't matter how wide those things are, they SEEM like they're about one foot wide!
That plaque sadly notes the death of two NMU students from about ten years ago. One fell (or got washed) in and the other jumped in to save him and neither survived.
It's a very sobering message and I was very cautious that day as I toured Presque Isle Park and the rest of the Marquette area. Just a reminder of how wild the U.P. really is.
