Finishing up in McAllen this time, and heading down to Brownsville.
More McAllen palms.
Hoping for a nice trout or bass, but all I keep reeling in are these stupid orange and white things.
New trip, new paint job. And other bits.
Electronic Components to Brownsville's port.
Leaving town.
Gloomy weather, hoping it clears up soon. Not exactly the tropical vibe I'd like.
McAllen park and church.
Properly under way now.
Brownsville is just down the road. It's similarly palm-encrusted like McAllen, and similarly ordinary otherwise, except for the fact that it has three awesome job sites, one of which is pretty much unique in either of the games right now. We're going to check out the port today.
Yep. We've arrived.
On our way to the port.
Seems like they're either building or scrapping (recycling?) an aircraft carrier back there. Hope it's not the Lexington, I was looking forward to seeing that in Corpus Christi.
Components delivered.
That must be the Keppel yard, where they make and repair oil rigs. And Lacky Arthur's in port, good to see the old girl again.
Wind turbine parts lined up as we head further parallel to the quayside to check out the grain silos.
Relatively small, but still epic in scale.
That's it for this time - next up, Brownsville's amazing Taylor Construction jobsite.
Thanks for taking a peek! Krigl
