A Walk Around Marshall

     Shelly keeps asking me for more pictures of the different buildings that we have here in Marshall. So I took advantage of Labor Day and walked around the village and took pictures of most of the buildings around town. Although Marshall isn't that big it took me awhile to get around because every little bit there was someone who wanted to chat or a student asking me what I was doing.

 The American and Alaskan flags at Marshall School

 The utility station

 

The main store in Marshall (there are two others)  

 

 The community center, never was finished

 The Russian Orthodox church

Marshall's Post Office

 Good Advice

 The poop pond

 The road I was walking on

 Beautiful mountains around Marshall

 A cool old machine (not sure what it is)

The Yukon was raging. It was a very windy day!

 Someone's fishing boat

 Fish drying out (jerky)

 City offices

 The pool hall (one o is missing)

 Another store, I've never been inside

 Fuel storage tanks

Generators that produce electricity for our village

 The lone fuel pump

 Evangelical Christan Church

 Teacher housing

These next few pictures are for my boys. I wish that they were here so they could see these big tractors and trucks work. They would love it. 

Large tractor

 Giant dump truck

 Bobcat style tractor with tracks

 

 Mobile crane

 

 Our village garbage truck

 Loading drywall into the second floor

 Stacks and stacks of insulated pipe

     Well here it is, Marshall Alaska in one blog post. There are some other buildings that didn't make the cut. I still need to take some pictures of the airport, but it is a three mile hike one way and there has been bears seen around there, so I need a gun. For some reason I didn't take a picture of the Catholic Church, not sure why I walk by it everyday. I also didn't take a picture of the store that is near the gas pump. Maybe in the next few weeks I will add those pictures to another post.
