"Straits of Mackinac"

It is Labor Day 2007 and thousands of participants are involved in the Annual Mackinac Bridge Walk. Begun back in 1958, the gathering generates on the average of 50,000-60,000 persons each Labor Day that partake in the 5 mile walk. Stealing the show, however, is the 858’ M/V Roger Blough of the Great Lakes Fleet, just passing under the Bridge. The Blough is upbound for Two Harbors, MN where it will load iron ore pellets at the CN/Missabe Dock. Just returning from U.S. Steel’s Gary Works in Gary, IN where the Blough unloaded iron ore pellets from the CN/Missabe Dock in Duluth, MN, one of the small craft boaters near the Bridge has given the self unloading vessel the Master’s Salute of 1 long, 2 shorts from it’s horn. In return, the Blough has answered back with 3 thunderous whistle blasts of the same.
