Catching a Tug/Barge of a Different Sort

 And what a different a day can make in the weather.  While Saturday was nice and sunny, Sunday was nice and snowy.  Fortunately it was warm enough that the snow didn't really stick so I decided I wanted to get some weather shots.  I saw that there was at least one ship coming down that I could catch.

While I was waiting for that ship, I actually heard this boat before I saw it.  It was pretty loud.
The boat in question was the Annie M. Dean and I think she's appeared on this blog before.
In fact, I think she was doing the same thing that she is doing in this pictures.
I think she is used in dredging work and other work.  In this case, I think they were using her to put rocks along the river.
Another shot of the full thing.
I think she was heading to the stone dock on the other side of Windsor, but I'm not sure.
I will have to say that she is a pretty nice looking tugboat.
And she starts to pass by.

One more shot as I see my next ship.

Dreamboat Annie

This tug was tucked between the last boat and the next boat.  I figured she would be good for a separate post because I like tugboats.
The Annie M. Dean belongs to Dean Construction Company of Belle River, Ontario.  She was built in 1981 and is 50 feet long.  It looks like she is moving some construction material up the river.
