As the snow falls across the region, the ships continue to march their way to the end of yet another busy season.
Wednesday morning saw John D Leitch pass through the 1000 Islands, while this afternoon Algoma Provider did the same. Both ships were heading upbound for Lake Ontario.
In addition, the tail-end of the parade is in sight, but way off in the distance as Algoma Spirit sat anchored near Beauharnois Lock, east of Cornwall. Spirit, which is also heading upbound and destined for Hamilton to layup, looks to be the final ship of the 2011 season. As of 4:30 p.m. the ship had not left anchorage. In the event there are no issues with the ship, it will pass through the area on Thursday.
No ships have been downbound for a few days now and the final saltie, Jetta Theresa, departed last week.
