We're still talking shipwrecks today. Yesterday, we mentioned the "Great Lakes Shipwreck Museum" and gave you a lot of detail about what you can expect to see. However...There's one thing we failed to mention...
"Explore the Haunting World of Shipwrecks"!
Lake Superior. Deceivingly beautiful, yet the big lake's unrelenting fury has earned her the reputation of being the most treacherous of the Great Lakes. Throughout the museum gallery, visitors see dramatic shipwreck legends come to life. Artifacts and exhibits tell stories of sailors and ships who braved the waters of Superior and those who were lost to her menacing waves. The bell of the famous Edmund Fitzgerald is displayed in the museum as a memorial to her lost crew. Whitefish Point marks the critical turning point for all ships entering or leaving the lake. The waters that extend west from Whitefish Point along the 80-mile stretch of rugged shoreline have earned the ominous title, "Lake Superior's Shipwreck Coast".
Don't forget to register again today. The link is up top. One more day of registering tomorrow, and we'll wrap things up talking just a little bit more about Sault Ste. Marie.
