"GOOD SATURDAY MORNING" Steve.

Great shot by Rod of the Lee A. Tregurtha ~ 'she' has a lot of WWII history behind her.


By Shirley Waggoner (Shirlohio) on Saturday, April 26, 2014 - 10:48 am:

BTW, Dean, I hope little Jayce is still improving!


By D. A. (Midwested) on Saturday, April 26, 2014 - 02:04 pm:

Thanks for the heads up Shirley. I bet most people
never knew she was attacked by German U-boats
during WWII. I certainly didn't.

I looked up her history. What an unusual life for
a "Laker". Originally named "Samoset", in 1942 she
was acquired by the US Navy and commissioned as
oiler USS Chiwawa. She received at least 2
battle stars serving in both the Atlantic and
Pacific. Once her 45 ship convoy was attacked by
17 U-boats and 4 sister ships were sunk. Only one
of the U-boats was sunk.

Yes, D.A., 'she' was a pretty busy lady during that terrible time and still wears those campaign ribbons proudly!:)

Great set of springtime pix!

All the water pictures today are great!! And I love
the 2012 and 2007 pictures.

Have a great weekend, everybody!

Very interesting D.A. and Shirley, thanks for the History lesson.

Also hope that Jayce is on the way to recovery.

The snow has slowly turned into water in Ontonagon, but slowly is the key word. Looks like it's not going to be a good summer for swimming in the Big Lake.
