But as it has deteriorated, the Florida Department of Transportation has been considering closing the 100-year-old span to public access for safety and CELEBRATING OUR PAST budget reasons. No more. Thanks to officials from DOT, Monroe County and the city of Marathon working together throughout the fall, a plan is being hammered out to turn the bridge into a park. A little over $77 million has been designated by DOT, the county and the city for repairs and to cover 30 years of maintenance. DOT will foot $57 million of the bill over the next three decades and retain ownership of the bridge. Monroe County will contribute $14.2 mil- lion and Marathon $5.3 million. A preservation group called Friends of Old Seven plans a fundraising campaign for private donors to help pay for beautification on the bridge and nearby areas. One of those neighbors is Pigeon Key, an island where Flagler’s railroad workers stayed and accessible by walking, biking or skating the old Seven Mile; or by boat. There are several typical Keys cottages on the tiny, picturesque island, which is on the National Register of Historic Places. It’s a charming Keys historical attraction. Converting the bridge into a park will be a boost for the island’s staunch supporters and fans. And Marathon hopes to gain from the linear, elevat- ed park, as well. City boosters believe it will draw overnight visitors who, these days, just stop for gas or drive straight through to Bahia Honda State Park, Big Pine Key and Key West in the Lower Keys. A lot of credit should be doled out to the folks from DOT, Monroe County and Marathon.

One of us takes care of cleaning the boat and the other cleans the catch. Cleaning the boat is somewhat solitary and peaceful, allowing time to reflect. Cleaning fish, on the other hand, is like being on stage with an open microphone attached to everyone in the audience. The timing of the return dictates the amount of traffic on the dock, with happy hour being the most popular.
