Spent many warm family afternoons ,... enjoying the splendor of the open waters of Lake Superior.,... but on that fateful day of Nov 10, 1975, somewhere beyond Whitefish Point (on the left) and Gros Cap point (on the right) The SS Edmund Fitzgerald sank,... tragically with all 29 crew members. On that stormy evening I was shutting down our veneer mill shift,... and learned afterwards of the sad news. Yes, Lake Superior is truly a "mystical" body of water ,... but the Lake is not always as beautiful as it seems!
