New York bound

I'm packed, checked, and double checked. I've got a few hours until the taxi gets here, Katie has been dropped off at my parents' house, and there's nothing left to do but wait. I'm pretty excited, and a bit antsy. Since I've got some time, I figured I'd post a few more pictures from yesterday.

These were taken at NS1 bridge. This boat was coming in while I was at the top of the bridge, checking on the tower lights.


Here I'm on the "dolphins" working on the lights that light up the towers. The dolphins are there to protect the bridge from being damaged by freighters. I don't know if Peeps is lucky, or good, but he's taken several excellent pictures.


The American Courage is returning from unloading iron ore at the blast furnaces. I've got several pictures posted of this ship making her way up or down the river.


As she steams by, I just keep working. I still get a kick out of working downtown on the bridges, but after a short while, the newness wears off and it becomes business as usual.
