Ooo… too soon?

The winds of November, only just came calling

Cmon man, no Wisconsin or Minnesota? The thing left Superior. We remember.

Which is not actually superior to Duluth in any way, really.

Also, I dare say, all of Canada.

I worked on one of these ships, honestly Lake Michigan was the scariest one to be on at times

There's a memorial today in Duluth

You’d think it that it happened in the eighteenth century or something, the way it’s sung, but nope, not even fifty years ago.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

Yeah, I always thought it happened in the 10s-30s, then caught something on YouTube about it and oh no, it was in the 70s.

The ship was bound for Cleveland

[–] [email protected] 3 points 9 months ago

That’s a Gordon Lightfoot myth. It was bound for Zug Island at the junction of the Detroit River and Rouge River in Detroit.
