    The dog could have landed close to where she/he was picked up by the wind, and wandered a mile in 2 days.

    GPS won’t help a shipt to avoid an iceberg unless the location of the berg is known far enough in advance.

    Hope they charged the family with making a nuisance call. What a stupid waste of resources.

    Nuisance 911 call maybe. We were lost on a nature hike as kids. Did not find us til well after dark. Very scary. Wished they’d had cells in the 60s.

    It seems as if those ships never learn. They’re “gluttons for punishment”!

    There’s also a corn maze near Traverse City, Michigan.

    When much of it is below the water? Figure it out.

    Because of the weight of pure ice, only around 10% of the iceburg is visible above the water line.

    So GPS can’t see icebergs? That’s Glacier Positioning System.

    I was personifying ships. They don’t eat food, either! By the way, if icebergs are so dangerous and sometimes can’t be avoided, why go where they are? I know it’s often a shorter distance, but the risk must be weighed against the advantage and benefits!
