Large Freighter Seeks Shelter in East Bay Today

Snowy wintry day in Traverse City this last day of November. Temps were steady at 18 degrees F. with a good blow from the NW. It was surprising to me to see a freighter of this size in East Bay. Not an uncommon sight in West Bay, but its been a while, if ever, that I've seen a freighter of this size in East Bay. The photo really doesn't do it justice. The ship looked huge looming in the dark green waters off of Peninsula Bay's beachfront. There were times that I couldn't see the ship when the snow came down hard. It was in a constant state of fading and
re-appearing, very cool to watch.

Peninsula Bay's Bathrooms Becoming Reality

Crews were working on the Pool bathroom today, at Peninsula Bay, in severely cold weather. The structure is taking shape and it will be exciting to see what the amenities are when complete. The ice-melt is disabled for the duration of the construction so be careful on the walks during icy conditions.
