    Rosie the Riveter has nothing on this woman! She looks pretty tough!

    That is so awesome! I feel like more of that should be going on today.

    I love the look on her face...

    This title may as well say Women "can be" trained! It's so subtly of its era.

    Ah! the SS EKORBMEP at Cheekpoint with a dent in her nose A short time after 23rd February 1899.
  • derangedlemur said:
    SS Pembroke: She operated as a paddle steamer from 1880 to 1895; the following year returning to service with twin screws and new boilers, all this time on the Irish Sea. In 1916 Pembroke was transferred to work from Weymouth as a cargo boat but on 24 September she was attacked by a U-boat so the following January she was fitted with a gun for defence. She was sold for scrap in 1925

    If this is at Cheekpoint, then it was her second - this timedeliberate - grounding after she hit the Saltees on 18th February 1899.

    SS Pembroke aground at Cheekpoint, was apparently a thing. Edit: Too slow and not funny enough again.

Jökulsá á Brú. Kláfur, or wirerope bridge.

  • Peter Gorman said:
    Nice picture, but I think the location is incorrect - Jökulsá á Brú is in the east, coming from the northern part of Vatnajökull. The Kláfur would have been near the farm Eiríksstaðir.
