MIchigan Yo



That song gives me goosebumps every time. My wife did a lot of work researching the fisheries and shipwrecks in the Great Lakes, and so it was hard not to be touched/affected by the sinking of the Edmund Fitzgerald. I didn't catch every special but I caught enough of them to be impressed by these ore carriers and as a saltwater guy, the power of the mighty Gitchigoomie. That's some scary water. Waves coming at you from all directions, nothing nice and predictable like it is off the Grand Banks.

I missed this yesterday, so I'm posting it up here and now. And yes. I do like this gordon lightfoot song. I actually knew the song long before i knew anything about the ship.
