Sunrise Over Ingleside

Coming from Refugio this morning I saw the effects of the morning sunrise over the area across the bay that used to be Naval Station Ingleside.

Point Comfort Texas

Here along the central Texas coast are a number of refineries and other large businesses.  I am passing by one of them near Point Comfort. The flame caught my attention as it is bigger than it normally is.  Places like this provide work for many people here in the Texas Crossroads area.

Bastrop Fires - 3 Years Later

Shot these photos along 21 just a few miles outside Bastrop.  Still very obvious the damage from the fire three years ago.  Seems to me they cleaned up more along 71 but here along 21 there is still a lot of damage visible.

Tree Lined Roads

This shot is along US 183/77A northbound between Goliad and Cuero. These are the kinds of trees that line this highway in this area. Maybe not the kind of trees that you would think are beautiful, but they have their own beauty and they create the special part of Texas that this is.   And, in a few months, this highway as many others in South Texas will be lined with wildflowers.

In a JAM?

Seen off of 45 in North Houston.  You might be in a JAM if this truck didn't do his job:  delivering gasoline to your local stations where you can keep your car humming like the fine vehicle it is.

Alleyton C.S.

This historical marker at the old Alleyton location on FM 102 just off of IH10 east of Columbus. Took me a minute to figure out C.S.A. is Confederate States of America. I should have gotten a straight on photo to make it easier to read but you should be able to read it.

Peterbilt

Saw a nice Peterbilt at a stop light in Refugio, Texas along US 77. I had been getting fuel and looked up to see this nice truck stopped at the light.
