Thanks for the dinosaur clouds Jon Paul! I can smell it in my mind's nose now. I had reminders of coal machinery throughout my yout going to an elementary school that didn't convert the heating plant 'till 1979.

Excellent photos Jon Paul, thank you! Just a side note, the Hennepin was hand fired to the end.

all that smoke and black soot was the reason my mother hated to see a boat on the saint clair river after she had put her wet sheets out on the line to dry. russell island was a great place to grow up during the summer months.

Lots of smoke.
