Last Saltie Departure
The last ocean freighter of the season departed last evening on a race to beat heavy ice in the Seaway bays and rivers.
It was not unusual in the days of sailing vessels that they would become icebound when early cold arrived, like this year. The sailors would walk to shore and camp until spring.

Fire and Ice
For a few minutes this morning, the rising sun cast an incredible crimson glow across the harbor ice.
