Yesterday I posted a photo of a mill along the Cuyahoga with faded “ghostwriting” on a wall, and someone asked what was once written there.  Below, thanks to William Lafferty, is the answer.  Read this post and comments here for further info on the Fairchild mill.

Upriver Kevin Oldenburg does fabulous work with his drone, which he posts under his name on FB.  My favorites are the ones on moody days, as in the shots of Manhattan heading to Albany below.

The crisp lines and colors of the boat contrasting with the dark river ruffled by the bow and rolling the cold water . . .  these are just magical.

Another day another vessel . . . here the brawny Atlantic Salvor urges Chesapeake 1000 crane through the waterway.  The angle diminishes the 1000‘s size, but that crane is formidable, as seen below.

The next batch, shared by Antonio Calandra on FB, shows the triple-screw Erin Elizabeth, recently arrived in the boro after a 10+ day voyage here, with Chesapeake 1000 lifting her off CMT Y Not 8 barge and lowering into the waters of Port Newark.

 

 

Relative size is apparent here, as J. Arnold Witte takes charge of the larger Erin Elizabeth to move her to a location to begin the process of stirring her to life.  In the distance, that’s Douglas J.

Many thanks to William, Kevin, and Antonio for use of these photos.
