Thanks for the story, fren. I think all of us in Michigan were touched by the wreck. In a different way, it was a very similar feeling to the Velsicol/PBB cow feed tragedy that took place the year before in St. Louis MI and spread to the whole of the state; another very sad event (the clean up continues to this very day). I was six when the freighter sank, and our elementary school music teacher would revisit the tragedy on or very near the anniversary every year, playing the song and educating us on what happened that day.

I've added the Shipwreck Museum to our vacation bucket list, so thank you for mentioning that as well.
