CMT Pike

Once upon a time in the sixth boro, there was a tug named Odin.  The photo below is from April 2010.

Yesterday, I first thought Odin had returned, although I know that is not possible.

Pike comes to CMT from the cleanup project up on the Champlain Canal.  Siblings of Pike back then were Hawk, Beaver, Otter, and Bass, some of which can be seen here.

For now, let me just say I love the color scheme.  For history on Pike, click here.

And if you never saw Odin, here are a few more photos from 2010, and

and one photo from September 2008, showing how high she could raise the house.  To see how low she went, click here.

Odin has since been completely (!!!) rebuilt and now looks like this, believe it or not.
