Last night as I was checking Marine Traffic, I saw that the Munson was heading down. She was coming from Brevort and I think that means she had a load of sand, but I'm not sure.
She was heading over to Buffalo. I think this is the third Great Lakes Fleet ship to head over to Buffalo.
Last weekend was the Anderson's turn. The Clarke headed over there too.
I'm not sure what they are taking over there. I think Buffalo might have a cement plant or something like that.
She was in Calumet Harbor which is near Chicago. If I had known that, I could have shot a picture of her from the Blues Brothers Bridge.
Anyway, she is a nice looking ship and I had a relative that worked on her for a brief period of time.
She used to operate out of Rogers City quite a bit.
In fact, I think she carried stone then mostly.
You can see a fisherman getting a last trip out before it gets too cold.
Switching to my drone after she passed the Ambassador Bridge.
Letting her get a little closer.
I'm still not brave enough to get the close up frontal shots. I'm not sure how quickly my drone can move out of the way.
And honestly, that would be a bad time for it to act up.
It was actually kind of nice today, a little on the chilly side but I'll take what I can get in the middle of November.
The beam shot.
And she passes on.
She approaches the Gordie Howe Bridge. I can't wait for this bridge to be complete, it is going to look nice.
Switching back to my normal camera.
One more shot as she continues on after being serviced by the Westcott. The Westcott on her stern. From this point, it is roughly 18 hours to Buffalo.
