Rounding Bergen Point 3

Before returning to bends around points on other rivers, I want to share some photos I took yesterday, first in a while at Bergen Point.  Here’s the set-up out of Newark Bay.

I’d love to know the tension of the line up from Marjorie.

Ellen pushes on the port stern quarter, and

Robert counters on the opposite bow.

It’s gusty.

But someone calling the shots up there knows how

to rotate

just right.  A year from now, it’s possible there will be gaps in that lower roadbed, if any of it left at all.

 

I’ve no idea what the clearance was yesterday, and I’m eager for that walkway to be re-opened.

 

Another job is almost complete here as of late morning Friday, but the work never ceases, as traffic into the port can be said to

be ever lining up.  There are 30 (I believe) of these Ever L ships, liberal, lasting, lovely, loading, lifting, lucid, laden, lucky, loyal, linking, and more.

Lambent left Shanghai in early November  and will be back in Panama Asia-bound late next week.
