You can't cross the sea merely by standing and staring at the water.

~Rabindranath Tagore

 

It's 'Sitting by the Dock of the Bay' Week! A week-long photographic tribute to the scenic seaside of San Francisco Chicago.

 

Abegweit: Resting peacefully on Lake Michigan, this beautiful ship was once the most powerful icebreaker in the world. Launched in 1947, the massive Abegweit (372-feet long and 62-feet wide) carried 950 passengers & 60 cars for the Canadian National Railways before being retired to the Columbia Yacht Club in Chicago in 1981. Taken on a v-v-very cold Chicago morning last February.

 

I know it's supposed to be San Fran, but I thought I'd mix up. :) I'll catch up with you all this weekend!
