Saturday, July 16th - Another Beautiful Day

 I'm sitting looking out over the river watching the lights on the Canadian side become more prominent as darkness comes. Its 9:45, the "official" sunset was 9:26. There was quite a bit of traffic on the river today. Lots of small fishing boats zooming up and down the river. We also watched 5 or 6 freighters pass by. According to the app I have it will be hours before another freighter gets to the locks, but several may make it before daylight.

Kathy went grocery shopping in the morning but most of the day we have spent sitting by the river, enjoying the weather and watching all the traffic on it.

Tomorrow I have to dig out our binoculars so that I can watch the Ojibway offload onto one of the freighters. I watched her as she left Soo Maritime Supply, next to the campground, and head out into the river.

With a pallet full of stuff ready for delivery. I'm thought one looked like an Amazon box.

Here she is, tucked up along side the freighter, moving the pallet to the freighter.


The above sequence was repeated at least three times today, as other freighters came eastbound through the locks. 

Not much else to report. We visited some with the guy on the west side of us and with a couple from Minnesota who were walking along the river. It was their first time here.

God is good. I pray that He blesses you and yours.
