Port Mansfield TX


February 4, 2015
We were really excited to move on to Port Mansfield after a month at Hummingbird Cove.  We had been there to fish on the pier and loved the feel of a small fishing village. 

This was the store where we shopped - bait, milk, snacks.  The nearest real store and gas stations were in Raymondville, 25 miles away.
  

Yes, that little red spot is our car.  



  

Here are some pictures around Port Mansfield



This was our view when we fished
in the river going out to the Laguna Madre. 
      








Is this really legal??

There are probably more deer than people living here.




   

Our rig.  

It was usually too windy to fish and sitting outside was not an option.  Going to town was a 25 mile ride.  There were no activities and going to the laundromat was a treat because I usually met someone I could talk to.  We passed the time as best we could.  Not the owners' fault as they were responsive and kept the place nice.  
There just wasn't anything to do and the wind was relentless!  

Goodbye.
