paul roncetti Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Well said Paul, and Vlad, i'm sorry I didn't get to meet you and your son.Thanks other dog, It seems that we all work like eager beavers our whole lives, saving and planning for the future, whether it be private enterprise or government. Then the future comes and there is always something that intercedes with the plan, its not supposed to happen this way, it can't be. I've never seen it to fail. So the moral of the story is more steel as like Vlad says the future is here. 1 Quote RONCETTI Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31807-1200-miles-down-the-roads-of-ny-and-pa/page/2/#findComment-192656 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vladislav Posted July 6, 2013 Author Share Posted July 6, 2013 I agree! so many places i'd like to see in this country,been past everywhere,never really been anywhere,if that makes any sense!.............................MarkI also have this thing in common for shure.That's why I make many stops by a long way. Niagara falls weren't really the aim, I more wanted to lay the trip down that point but look as much over as I could.Of course It's much easier when you're on holiday but it's look to me as an important matter to think about when on a job.You spend much more time when but more and more less than if you do a special holiday trip to same points.And from my side I tested it many time and glad to say - it works Quote Никогда не бывает слишком много грузовиков! leversole 11.2012 Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31807-1200-miles-down-the-roads-of-ny-and-pa/page/2/#findComment-192905 Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul roncetti Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 Hi Vlad, some pics I took when I visited the Kruzenshtern when it docked in Buzzards Bay after losing half of its forward mast in a storm in the Bermuda Triangle. U see the railroad and auto bridges in one photo it could not clear to sail on to Boston. I believe it sailed back to Germany or Russia for repairs after it rounded the islands and outer Cape. 2 Quote RONCETTI Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31807-1200-miles-down-the-roads-of-ny-and-pa/page/2/#findComment-192975 Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul roncetti Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 You mean the Coast Guard Bark Eagle (Horst Wessel) based in New London, CT?

Vladislav Posted July 6, 2013 Author Share Posted July 6, 2013 No, I mean Kruzenshtern with all the masts on the picture above.By the word I looked both sides down the river than crossed the bridge in New London CT but didn't catch any big mast vessel.

paul roncetti Posted July 6, 2013 Share Posted July 6, 2013 OK it was en route from Guantanamo Bay to St. Petersburg, FL. So you would have been unable to see it as it was on a cadet training voyage. First pic as the Segelschulschiff Horst Wessel in 1938 and second pic as the Coast Guard Barque Eagle today. 1 Quote RONCETTI Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/31807-1200-miles-down-the-roads-of-ny-and-pa/page/2/#findComment-192981 Share on other sites More sharing options...
