One thing that made sense was the bulldozer operator saying that the pad had to be up there for the exhaust to avoid harming the dunes. Those little piles of sand between the pad and water are what keeps the area from turning into part of the Gulf. More crane puzzle pieces are here this morning. Snuck through before the road work started back up. I'd still guess the boom for Saturday if it's near. It's starting to look like one of the big Appletons. The base is around 13 feet. The owner of 8 Weems is clearing the place out this morning. Says he unloaded it to a buyer who asked to remain anonymous. I'm not sure who they think they're fooling.
So the top image is a water tank I guess

Looks like they finished paving early. I thought that base was big until the boom got here. Paced off around 130 feet. It looks like an overhead. I'm going to stop guessing what's going on here. Back to digging post holes in clay.

i think "Thing 3" from above connects to the top of the boxy base we saw earlier. the attachments points line up better at around 8' apart. then in looks like at the top of Thing3, some of the others narrower struts attach where its a bit narrower at 4'
something like this?
Rock bar and a post hole digger. Half the reason I'm doing it is for the exercise. Every six feet, being hurricane country.
WTH is this to be used for in south Texas... <I'm very confused>

you'd think if this isnt going to be on tracks it'd be on the EIS map?
