When does the weather start really changing up there? Do you worry about lake-effect gale storms in the fall?

Yep in mid September/october it picks way up. We test the anchor quite a bit. It's been very windy lately. Had to go on anchor and hide for about 6 hours last week. Alot of people think just because it's a lake, how rough could it get? Over 6000 sunken vessels would argue otherwise. Huge lake.... water in some spots is over 1000 feet deep.
If the wind blows hard enough it can raise or lower it 20 feet.... on one side.

Busy today at the locks. Full tilt boogie on the building of the new locks. Thanks to Mr. TRUMP.
Shocked Glorious Leader Brandon hasn't cut the funding. Probably too busy claiming all the jobs he created.

The conveyor crew over loaded the belt and blew the top of the boom off. Yesterday, What a cluster. Busted all the mouning bolts. Glad I was asleep when it happened.

Not sure who's bright idea this was but don't like it. An OOPS would kill lake Erie for 200 years... theres actually 3 on this lake.

At fuel dock picking up 100k gallons. This used to be a power plant back in the good old days, now a fuel dock. FYI we buy alot of power from Canada.... they must not have an EPA to save the planet.
