And the Algoma Harvester

There was a pretty steady stream of ships for the day.  I realize that there used to be more ships but this will do.
 Next up was another ship that I don't get to see all that often.
 I believe that Algoma Harvester was on her way up to Thunder Bay to pick up a load of grain.
 After that, she will head to Quebec.  In Quebec, she will unload and that load of grain will be picked up by another ship that will take it to Europe (or other places).
 To give you an idea of the vastness of the Lakes, it will take her roughly 24 hours to get to Thunder Bay.  After she finishes loading, it is 24 hours back to the Locks.  From the Locks it is roughly 24 hours to Detroit.  After Detroit, it is roughly 24 hours to the other side of the Welland Canal.  Then is is probably another 48 hours or so to Quebec.
 A rusted bear.
 I kind of like this flag.
And she continues on to the Locks.
