That's how i heard it too, but was thinking more along the line of having all the train stations in the same time zone.

I didn't know that. Imagine if all the railroads had done that. 🙃 😄

Wow, did you see Idaho? BTW, we lost power about 20 minutes ago. One of many throughout the year.

I'm curious about how high a wind normally takes the boats off the lakes? Just a lake, reminds me when i was pretty young, being born in Michigan, great lakes were familiar and first time i went and saw the ocean it didn't really dawn on me it was an actual ocean, until a bit of water splashed...

That light(s) makes for a cool effect! I used to have relatives that live in Ludington. Luddites from Ludington, never got old, at least for me. 🙃

Maybe it's getting mixed up with the bridge.

Not a lake story. A drowning from a boat being pulled below water. Some years ago before cell phones, i was canoeing down the Yakima River in Washington state. I happened to look up above me to see a man up on the rail tracks, standing over a body. I pulled to the side and got out, walked up...

I can't imagine what that would be like, to have your life boat being pulled down along with the ship.

I know, from your previous post, that the cute circle thingy is where it's located, and the swirly water nearby might indicate it's pumping water out of the thruster.

That one with the smokey water with the two boats in it is pretty cool. Well they all are but.

Ha ha, ok. Well thanks for pulling them from FB and posting here.

Man, upping the picture quality single handedly.

Wow, very dramatic picture!

Yee hawww!, riding the bow wave.

"rolling" coal.

Lol. I've never understood the rec boaters period. They get an expensive piece of equipment, never use it, and put more money into it. So when i see someone boating, even if the weather isn't the best, i think well at least they're getting something out of their investment. On the shorts and...

Wow, 10 feet!

And less wind?

I too find these pictures and videos fascinating, especially in winter weather.

That was a nice video.

Speaking of lights on a boat, and not on the Great Lakes. I remember a fishing boat came into the harbour and left their amazing bright lights on, all night long. Lit up the whole area, the people living in the village nearby asked the to shut them off at night if they weren't using them. It...

Squeaking.

Brrrrrrrr! Pretty cool looking.

In this thread, i was told it was probably cheaper to put the bridges closer to where all the gear it connect to is.

That's gotta be a sinking feeling. So to speak.

Ok, that makes sense.

I wondered what the sound was in other videos. Sounds kinda like a train going across the rails?

Maybe a belts and suspenders kind of thing?

Man, i can't imagine backing then ramming into 11' of ice!

I can imagine the wind coming up and pushing those ice floes around would be a navigation hazard for sure.

I like your Ice idea jjef.

Someplace in Canada. :sneaky:

My cousins kayak around in that area, very pretty pictures. Sad to hear.

Oh man, that sinking feeling when your boat is sinking.

I thought he was going to fight the wind and current till he got run over, but just in the nick of time.

Haha, yes James Barker has one of the best blast. :D I've never seen a video with it sitting that low in the water. Wow.

These posts are very interesting. Thanks everybody.

That was close. Yikes!

I'm guessing more processing at the mines, prior to shipping.

Interesting article.

Interesting.

Looks like an optimistic 2021.

Anti gel device? I'll be honest, i didn't see it.
