1000 feet of power in Two Harbors

[Jim Almquist]

It was the twins birthday party today so no bog pics. When the kids went sliding I went on a photo shooting jaunt.We did have a Northern Hawk Owl fly by the house but I was too busy chowing and it was gone in a flash. When I got down to the break wall a 1000 foot was revving up and heading out with a full load of ore. All the pics were taken from the break wall.

The ore docks were they fill up the ships.

Nice! We love stopping in Duluth when we camp up that way in the fall to try and catch a ship coming into harbor.

Nice job Jim. That's a big boat-where's the rod holders??

Great Shots Jim, but your ship is A little shorter then 1000ft Great resource to look up lakers to.

BTW, my father worked on the ore boats in the early 50s for 3

years. Have some shots of him on the ships when they were

building the Mackinaw Bridge. He passed under it while they

built it.

Regards,

Jim

A guy could pull a lot of water skiers behind that thing.

The docks at Two Harbors are fun to catch a variety of subjects. These look good!
