To all:
Esco has moved SAVANNAH, or what's left of her to an angular dirt slip close to a closed road bed for her final dismantling. This allowed me to get closer to take a few pictures.
I also had the privilege of chatting with a Port of Brownsville cop, even though I was outside the fence line it is forbidden to take pictures of "federal property".
He took down my contact info, so far I haven't had any visits from men in suits.
So please enjoy the forbidden pictures.
In the future I'll just have to be more discreet then standing in the back of my pickup out in the open.
Any event, I had the chance to drive by there today, didn't take any pictures, but that was more based on my schedule than anything else.
On the ship itself the Bridge is gone, it only lives in memories.
Till next time.
Sid
