I hope everyone had a Happy New Year. No one was sick at the Carey's for this holiday, however, both girls got a nasty case of pink eye! Deah and I went to Sault Sainte Marie, Canada (pronounced Soo Saint Marie) Friday and Saturday to see some friends. Always a good time up there. On our way home we stopped by the Soo Locks to watch some freighters go through. We shot this one the Edgar B. Speer coming out of the Locks going west to Two Harbors, MN. This ship is 1004' long and 105' wide. The engines produce 19,600 horsepower! It is truly awesome to see something that big move. http://boatnerd.com/ has some cool stuff about the Locks and other Great Lakes shipping. This site has some cool webcams of the ships going through the locks too https://webcam.crrel.usace.army.mil/soo/ . You may have to hit refresh to make it work. Happy New Year to all and God bless.
