07/14/10 update on the Duck Below is a copy of an article from the Phila. Inquirer by Troy Graham. Sumamrized. No look out on the barge. A...
Also the picture looks to me like the barge is traveling upstream.
They had a memorial service yesterday in the rain for the two kids lost in the accident. This is a pretty nasty picture of the acccident...
Thats a good point. From the pics on TV I thought " upstream" but I was assuming the pics were from the PA side and not the NJ side. Also assumed...
P.S. congratulations on getting the bug. As Marmot said, it is not fatal and if it were, I can think of worse ways to go....

The style of the Berts in these pictures are the best ones out there. These are the Bertams I remeber as the bullet proof battle wagons. Great...
