Duluth Shipping Season Opener & Crescent Moon!

It was a fantastic early morning on the big lake. Shortly after 6 am the most gorgeous Crescent Moon rose between the trees, and then shortly before 8 am the Burns Harbor (a ship which carries iron ore to the steel mills of Ohio and New York) opened this year’s shipping season. If you want to watch / listen to an amazing amount of Hooting and Tooting back and forth between the Ship, the Aerial Bridge, and the Tug which helped the Burns Harbor through the ice, skip forward to 2:05 of the video. The symphony of sounds lasts till the very end of the video (video link for email subscribers).
