On our way to Nuevo Progreso Saturday, we passed these places. The fence is not straight across Texas. It curves, bends, and meanders along the border. The work is still in progress. We see workers each time we travel close to the border. From what I've read, there are parts of the fence that already need repairs. Seems the fence has been a boon for some, who supplement their income by removing sections of the massive steel pylons to sell, on their side of the border.
OH, SO CLOSE
On the road we were taking, sometimes the fence was this close to homes and farm then, at times we couldn't see it from the road.
I was amazed at how close it was to where people live. Literally in their backyards!
