Took a trip to the Straits of Mackinac yesterday. It was a pleasant
day, but still lots of ice on the Lakes. I posted some pictures I
took. While there is still ice everywhere, the shipping season is
open. The Soo opened on Friday, and there is a path cut in the ice
through the Straits. We spoted the freighter Burn's Harbor as we
crossed the bridge and got some pics of it as it moved between
Mackinac and Round Islands.
The new camera is working out great, along with the long lens I got a
picture of the Round Lake lighthouse which was about 7 miles away from me.
