Steamship, Put-In-Bay Comments

Francesca, I am very pleased to hear from you again and glad you liked the poem. Here is a little geography. Detroit is on the Detroit River which is, as it's name implies, actually a 'straight' which connects Lake Erie to Lake St. Clair. Lake Michigan is 300 or so miles away to the west. Janice and Jim raised me in the Detroit area.

My friend says that Lake Michigan is there where you describe, and not Lake Erie. Please advise me. As for the poem, I loved it. Fran xx

Reminded me of the paddle wheelers on the Mississippi
