Floating Bananas, Alpena, Michigan

Alpena, Michigan

Story Narrative:

"My mother's grandparents came to this country from Serbia, and on the way from Serbia, they were given a sack lunch and in the lunch was a sandwich and other items but along with that was a banana, and they didn't know they had to peel their banana, or not peeling their banana, they just took a bite, and it was so sour they'd throw them overboard, so what she told me that's been passed through the years is there were bananas floating behind the boat as far as the eye could see because they didn't want to eat those bananas."
