And the Lovely Kaye E. Barker

As I was getting ready to leave, I looked down the river and saw a surprise.

 The lovely Kaye E. Barker was returning from a visit to Toledo.  I think she was delivering stone to one of the docks there.

 She is heading back to Marquette where she will pick up taconite.  And I presume she will head back to the Rouge River.

 It was a nice surprise to catch her though.  Even though I see her alot, I do like it when I catch her.

 The beam shot.

And one more shot as she makes her way up the Detroit River.  In roughly 6 hours from this picture, she will be passing Port Huron.  After that, it is about 19 hours to the Soo Locks and then another 12 or so to Marquette.
