According to the Duluth Shipping News she has loaded here in Duluth 5 times with the first time being in May of 1998. I think I may have even photographed her on one of her trips here years ago.
Keep up the great work with the photos. You do wonderful work. Thank you!!
Garbear, I appreciate your correcting and clarifying the record. You've made me aware I should do background checks on the salties before commenting.
