April 11, 2018 – “Tempest Chained”
No new photos today. So posting one of the other shots I took of the old junker Pontiac Tempest (a 1961?) I posted on 4/6/18. This one makes it a little more clear just how abandoned it looked. And it’s clearer the oddity of the windshield… Though caked in years of dirt and grime, and no easy way to enter do to the weeds growing up over the doors, it seems the windshield wipers have run recently.
The Széchenyi Chain Bridge is a suspension bridge that spans the River Danube between Buda and Pest, the western and eastern sides of Budapest, the capital of Hungary. Designed by the English engineer William Tierney Clark, it was the first permanent bridge across the Danube in Budapest, and was opened in 1849.
It is anchored on the Pest side of the river to Széchenyi (formerly Roosevelt) Square, adjacent to the Gresham Palace and the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, and on the Buda side to Adam Clark Square, near the Zero Kilometer Stone and the lower end of the Castle Hill Funicular, leading to Buda Castle
The road got quite snow packed, we ended up putting Edwin's tire chains to use for about two minutes. It took us longer to put on/take off than we used them for, but they were still quite helpful (and legally required). Thanks, Edwin!
Taken at Arundel Castle, this is a close-up of part of the chain attached to the drawbridge.
It's obviously not been used to raise the bridge in a long time, and I was attracted by the textures of the chain, and the weathered wood behind it.

I would have made a great museum exhibit.

Chain wrapped around sled runner to increase friction going downhill, to prevent sled running over horse or mule. Sleds were used in the mountains for hauling crops, etc. at times snow was not present, as land was too steep to use a wheeled conveyance.
The Torpedo is carefully fixed with chains, because sometimes visitors of this Submarine like to leave U11 with some stolen Torpedoes in their pockets.
Remember - Torpedoes are very useful to clean overfilled water areas from not wanted ships, surfer ....
Rode up on two chains in the road near Pioneer Square. Dead Baby Aftermath? Fixie chains x 2 busted? Not something you see everyday.
