On the Rocks - a photo on Flickriver

On the Rocks

With a break in the weather I figured I better get some shots of the barge that got beached during last Monday's crazy windstorm. Vanier Park proved to be a good vantage point as I could get the buildings of the West End in the background. An attempt to refloat it was made on Tuesday but it failed. The next try will possibly be on Sunday but the massive barge is really wedged up on the rocks at Sunset Beach!

Apparently the next attempt at refloating will be on December 6th when there is a King tide.

Of course things being what they are these days it turns out the barge now has it's own Twitter account!
