In Remembrance
I don’t know if the Maritime Sailors’ Cathedral bell still chimes ’til it rang twenty-nine times.
Perhaps not; ancient history now …
I guess I have a bit of Great Lakes sailor in my blood; shared with two of my uncles who lived the life.
This recent book, “The Gales of November: The Untold Story of the Edmund Fitzgerald,” is an interesting and great read! It not only covers the sinking of the Fitzgerald, but also alot of interesting information on Great Lakes shipping in general, and other boats (they don’t call them ships on the Great Lakes) plying the waters. One of my nephews is currently the youngest Captain on the boats.
