Texas Rice Inc.

Tall skinny Rice Mill near Mercury Drive.  Just like a long grain of rice.

The Dump

The McCarty Street Landfill recycles its bio-gas and pipes it 6 miles over to the Anheuser Busch Brewery on 610 and I-10 to be used there to make our beverages.

Taco trucks

A homage to the Taqueria Trucks of Houston. I love the artwork that adorns these trucks.

Tacos D Mundo – on Harrisburg East of Downtown Houston

Taqueria Mi-Tinos – Updating the menu – on Houston Ave

Taqueria Los Mexicanos – Harrisburg near the Railroad tracks

El Taconazo – parked on Staff Sergeant Marcario Garcia Drive (69th St) near Navigation

El Taco Del Gordo – last spotted rolling Eastbound on I-10 near Kirkwood

Elotes La Estrella – parked in front of the Fiesta on Fulton

Taqueria El Regio – At the intersection of Market St and Federal Road

Pollos Asados Al Carbon – this one is smoking!

Que Pollaso! – Where old school buses go to die.

Don Chenchos Taqueria – on Lawndale near Telephone – also know as little Mexico

Taqueria El Primo – Lots of cheap tacos at this one

El Regio Antojitos – the location of the propane tanks on the back of this one is not a smart move by this vendor

Taqueria Anabel – On Shepherd just north of I-10 – at least the propane tank on this one is on the front of the trailer

Taqueria El Quetzal – this one features a beautiful painting of Lago de Atitlan, Guatemala. This truck usually hopping between construction sites in Hyde Park/Montrose.

Hopefully, Houston wont go the way of LA and New Orleans issuing bans on these mobile caterers.

Which ones have you been to?


Washburn Tunnel

I wanted a new place to ride my bike- so I rode East and went under the Ship Channel through the only underwater tunnel in Texas. The police officer stopped me as I finished existing on the south side and said dont ride in there again.


Crosby Lynchburg Ferry

I’m riding along in my automobile on the Ross S Sterling across the Houston Ship Channel.


San Jacinto Monument

A post race photo from the Battle of San Jacinto triathlon. The monument stands 570 ft tall from the base and is 15 feet taller than the Washington Monument. Everything in Texas is bigger.


Greetings from Galena Park

If you get a chance, cruise over to Mercury Drive in East Houston.  Due south is the Houston Ship Channel and the petrochemical plants.   As you look West, across the Texas coastal prairie, you can see the skyscrapers of Downtown.
