Hey Warpt...I think you might have something of interest in way of a photo book here with the old barges and excerpts of history of them!!! The photo's not on set the mind into motion with wonderment of the history of them but also leaves the eerie sense with the abandonment of them. They should be documented before lost forever to decay. Any grants out there for documenting this history???
Like I said before ...thank you for photographing them, hiking out to find this new one etc. I would buy a book about them with the pictures!! |

Thank you. I'm not much of a writer. I do want to find out more about the two pushers across the river and about the wooden tuck on the shore. I'll dig around a bit today.

Warpt...you don't have to be much of a writer to put a caption under/along with a picture that states the name and a bit of history or folklore with the barge....can help you in that area!!! Take notes buddy.....on anything anyone can tell you about the barges, anyone who worked on them that wants to give you info...takes notes my friend!! I see a great book in your future  The barges have a haunting draw.... |
