Our trip to Blue Ribbin Fish Farm

As stated before, Cheryl and I went to Ohio this Wednesday and Thursday to take a look at a fish farm that is producing Bluegills to the seafood market. The trip took 7 hours, but we made it a small vacation checking out a few sights along the way. Nothing really fancy, Just a small Japanese store in Novi Michigan. There was a lot of cool stuff, but we could not read Kanji, so mostly we stuck with the stuff we could recognize. I got some origami Paper and Cheryl bought a necklace. Then we ate lunch. I didn't get much of a tour of the facilities, and even if I had, I left the camera in the car. Ah well. On the return trip we saw some Bison and ate at a Waffle House. To those who do not know this, Waffle house has the best pecan waffle I have ever had ( better than Perkins, Denny's, and Sambo's just to name a few) They do not reside in Michigan, so whenever we are able to leave this state and find one....Well it ends up being on the "must do" list. I don't want to make this post too long, so I will add details as I remember them and as the experience sinks in. Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Aquaculture in Ohio!

I just wanted to post a quickie to the blog about what We have been up to this past week. I found a small operation that Farm Raises Bluegills for food! They invited me to come down and check out their operation. Forget the 7 hour drive down there....This was an operational Bluegill farm! There is much to tell and not much to show. I'll post some pictures later. But the gears in my brain that have for a long time been silent have once again clicked to life! I'm not sure where I should go from here, but something deep down makes me think I have to do something! More to come!
