The Roger Blough Passes Whitefish Point

I thought that I might have an outside chance of catching the Roger Blough at Whitefish Point. 
 After taking some pictures of the lighthouse, I walked back to the beach.  As I scanned the horizon, I saw a familiar shape to the east.  It was a little hazy though.
 I think the ship was about two or three miles out and chugging along.
 She would have filled up in Duluth with taconite. 
 She was on her way to Gary.
 From this point, it is about 5 hours to the Soo Locks and from the Soo Locks it is about 36 hours to Gary.
Anyway, it was nice to see her.
