sorry, unc, somehow you're heading east when I'm trying to tell you to head west.
To summarize: I am west of st lawrence's seaway; about 600 mi. west of lac st. louis; about 1200 miles west of bay of fundy; and about 1400+ miles west of glace bay. So go about 1400 miles west of glace bay and look around there for me. |

Sadly I never made it that far...I'm now where it turns into the open water of Gitche Gumee. I was heading to Whitefish Bay on a prayer but never made it....cold and dark down here.
The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay If they'd fifteen more miles behind her. |

I'm inclined to just give it to you based on "Whitefish Bay" but that's not really what I was hoping somebody would guess. So let's try another clue or so before I spill the beans: I'm the thing laying at the bottom of Gitche Gumee
