7 - THE TRIP BACK NORTH

South of the Border
One of the most recognized landmarks on the trip north or south on I-95
is at the border of North Carolina and South Carolina.
It has its own fire department as well.

Fire stations at South of the Border.

Spotsylvania, VA
Fire Station 4
April 22, 2019

Avenel, New Jersey
After a night, found this fire station quite by accident (not deliberately looking for it).
Interestingly, this is the station that the current Rochester, MA Tower Ladder came from.

New York City
A beautiful day for visiting New York and finding the retired FDNY Fireboat "John J Harvey"
and photograph a unique paint job that has been done on the vessel.

 

 

Just north of New York City is the new Tappan Zee Bridge taking I-287 over the Hudson River.
The bridge has been under construction for a few years and we have been over the old bridge
and new bridge at various stages of construction. It has been interesting to watch and seems
to greatly improve the travel around New York City going north and south.

 

North of the bridge on the East side of the Hudson is Tarrytown, NY.
Tarrytown recently got a new Fireboat.

 

 

Timing is often Everything.
We made a stop in West Haven, CT on the way home and actually found members
checking out their new fireboat delivered just hours before.
That is an I-95 bridge between New Haven and West Haven.
Perfect!
