I pay a lot of attention to the start of our (Duluth) shipping season, but a note from the Lake Carriers’s Association today reminds me that there are in fact, 4 other Great Lakes that have shipping seasons. And those south of us can get a head start since we are often encased in ice until mid-March or later. |

Their note indicated that the Paul R. Tregurtha will depart Duluth on March 22, 2017, with coal for Silver Bay. |
One of the big signs of spring is when the hummingbirds fly back across the gulf of Mexico and are seen again on the gulf coast. As it gets warmer they’ll move north.
