Lake Michigan

The fact that there are shipwrecks in the Great Lakes is not news. I don't know of any bodies of water in the world that have more than that region. However, I did not realize that there is (kind of) a Nazi shipwreck in Lake Michigan - until now.

It's not new and there's a sensible explanation for it, but people are going out of their minds over huge rolling ice balls in Lake Michigan.

There are no lack of stories and legends of buried treasure, but there is one that is starting to look like there's some truth to it. There is evidence mounting that there is a fortune in stolen Civil War gold that's buried somewhere in the Midwest.

If you've ever had the privilege of visiting the Great Lakes area, you know that weather can change in a heartbeat. One visitor near Lake Michigan captured a stunning time-lapse of a storm that suddenly popped up rolling in over the water.

The word "hero" gets overused these days, but this man truly deserves that honor. This Missouri man saved two young boys who were struggling in Lake Michigan before he drowned himself.

Quincy Police Chief Rob Copley is a long time supporter of Special Olympics and he once again will continue his support by plunging into icy waters for Polar Plunges.

Well, it's been a few weeks since I mentioned the low levels of the Mississippi River being a problem for shipping especially south of the St. Louis area.  It's so bad that the Army Corps of Engineers is overseeing rock blasting in the channel of the river south of the Gateway City.
