For the past week or so the State of Michigan has been plying the waters of the Straits of Detroit. Looking it up I discovered that it is the largest training ship of the Great Lakes Maritime Academy whose land location is in Traverse City on its spring cruise. How sweet is that for getting an education?




In this view students can be seen and on the upper deck are what I assume bikes they use when they get shore time, like when they were tied up at the Port of Detroit the other day. The bulk cargo carrier, the Cason J Callaway, passes by the State of Michigan with the Windsor Art Museum in the background.
