THOMPSON Arrives, Departs

JOSEPH H. THOMPSON and tug JOSEPH H. THOMPSON JR. arrived in Erie at 0130 today and docked at the Old Ore Dock to unload stone from Calcite. After a longer unload than the port has seen this season, the THOMPSON left the dock at 1115 and spent the next 45 minutes turning to depart before heading outbound. As of this writing at 2000 the THOMPSON is 20 miles east of Southeast Shoal light in western Lake Erie and bound for Stoneport, Michigan to load.
