The Escanaba Leaving Detroit

This part was kind of a bonus for me.

 Since I was at Milliken State Park, I decided to get some more pictures of her.  She is a cool looking cutter.

 I ended up walking closer to her to get some other pictures.

 Some of her ribbons.  I assume these represent drug busts.  I think she is mostly used for enforcement.

 Sadly, I couldn't get a tour of her but I noticed they were getting ready for her to leave.

 I think the tug was more there as a guide.

 She pulls out of the dock.

 and starts to get up to speed.

 The New Jersey following along.  Like I said, it didn't seem like the New Jersey was doing anything except acting as a guide point.

She starts to head down river.  She is returning to her home port of Boston.  As I type this post, she is in Toronto.  She will head to Quebec City next.
