Looking East South East looking into the Gulf of Mexico just before sunrise. 15 miles South from there is Mexico.
This was a natural pass that allowed access to the Laguna Madre and is now used for access to the shipping channels to and from the Gulf of Mexico.
That place reeks of filth.
It didn’t 20 years ago when people stayed the fuck away and the valley trash didn’t have the money or the means to make the 60 mile commute. But yes, sadly it has turned into a shit pit and the only reason I go there is because my parents still live there.
