Thanks Tim & Dennis for providing a name for the tug/barge. The big cutter was Griffon but I had to leave while it was still up river and missed photographing it.

It is indeed the Michigan and Great Lakes. I was watching them earlier today very cool sight to see. There was also a bigger cutter out there as well but I didn't catch the name of it.

Bookworm, from the looks of your tug/barge photo I would have to say it appears to be the tug Michigan and barge Great Lakes from what I can see when I enlarge the photo of them. Hope this helps.
