I've been in Duluth, MN when one of those big iron ore ships is heading out across Lake Superior.

They're massive. To think some wind and waves could essentially break a ship like that in half (which is one theory) is hard to contemplate.

Gordon Lightfoot looks like hell these days, but a great song-writer he is.

I've done 2 of his classics at karaoke: Sundown and If You Could Read My Mind.
