Catching the Mighty Paul

I waited around a little longer because the next ship was going to be pretty cool.

 The mighty Paul R. Tregurtha was making her way up from Monroe, Michigan.

 She would have been delivering coal to the Detroit Edison coal fired electric plant in Monroe.

 Sometimes, she will do a split load between the St Clair and Monroe power plants, I think this was one of those cases.

 She was making her way up to the coal dock in Superior, Wisconsin where she would make this run again.

 That journey is about 2 days away form this point.

 She looked nice in the sun.

 She looked even nicer framed under the Blue Water Bridge.

 she continues her way up.

She makes the final turn to head into Lake Huron.
