I'll add to your list...Michipicoten, Cuyahoga, and Edgar Speer. Michipicoten was tied up the down bound canal by West Pier. Edgar Speer was going into the downbound locks. Cuyahoga was up bound. There was one other on the up side of the locks but was too far out to see the name (She was headed down bound also). This was at 7 to 7:30.
Hopefully the frosting weather is over so your apple blossoms survive!
You sure ARE a boat watcher!
CC-I hope we are 'out of the woods' with frost now but we will see. Working out in the yard yesterday gave me lots of chances to see the boat traffic.
Bill K, Thanks for the comments. Lots of traffic yesterday, wasn't there. So far this morning, I've seen two boats so today is starting good too.
Thanks for the updates. Can't wait to come up an visit the Soo over 4th of July
Robert, The 4th is a great time to be up and the Sault and boat watching. They have the tug boat parade and races then. Plus the normal 4th of July celebration in Brady Park which sits right on the river just east of the Locks.
