I guess the only concerns would be in the late fall and winter months. Knowing freighters and tankers just don't move in those months, how would this be a benefit to the industry? J.

Glad to hear the winter did not abandon you guys. Been getting our share of moisture down here. I know all the lake levels could use the rain. What's this load about using the Greats for an oil pipe line(ships)? What's your take on it? J.

Zzzuup, I'm venturing to guess that you'll be seeing the snow gone in the not to far future. We fianally broke down and got ourselves a female shih-tzu mix from the pound. What a doll. Now we have an excuse to head north again :-)

Hi long time no hear, how's the snow ? All but gone down here.

Care to be buds?

Hey, thanks for the on the spot update :-) Hope to get back up there this year, been awhile. Last trip was with our K-9 Sir Theodore. He passed away March 3,2011

Bigger fire, burned many structures, homes, cabins. The rain was good, but the fire is still burning. the one in the Seney Wildlife area is under better control.

So, is the fire about the same as a few years back? We loved the Munising area. Thoughts on the H-58? Kinda killed the trip between, but helped speed it up. Got my first Deer kill on the way to Silver City Aug. '07 350# doe.

No, middle of the UP, but travel around a lot.

WEST sider ?
