Out to Pasture

The fireboat Joseph Medill lived a long service life with the Chicago Fire Department. This storied 92' boat, the victim of age and obsolescence, has been stripped of its fixtures, and awaits its final disposition at the hands of a salvage firm.

I took this photograph on the morning of October 15, 2009 at Escanaba, Michigan.
