First Ship to Lay-up and Updates

Hi, everyone

I just wanted to report that the G L Ostrander and her barge Integrity arrived in Milwaukee on the 15th to lay-up at the salt dock.

Furthermore, the reason for my absence is because I can't access my source of ship reporting, Who knows when I'll be able to access it, but hopefully soon because the end of the season is nearing.
