After witnessing four trains in a row, at the end of a long walk, I felt pretty sated and started heading for the T light Rail station which would carry me from the center of Pittsburgh back to HQ about five miles distant. It had been a fairly good day.

That’s when the start of this show made an encore appearance.

Just as I was leaving the waterfront trail and reentering the street ‘grid,’ the Miss Ivy Brynne Towboat shown in Monday’s post reappeared and was entering the maritime channel which would allow passage under the Smithfield Street Bridge.

Truth be told, I almost didn’t shoot these as I was quite pleased with myself and the day’s effort at this point, but did so anyway.

I had walked about eight and change miles, a distance which included multiple bridges and two rivers.

That’s the end of the story for this series of posts.

Next week, a return to Carrie Furnace, at this – your Newtown Pentacle.
