Aesthetically Obtrusive

I think the Border Fence is aesthetically obtrusive. I have other feelings about the fence, but in this post I just want to show what it looks like. I'm sure I will write more about it in future posts.

When we came upon the fence it took my breath away, for a minute. The first time we saw it, there were many "workers" present. I was amazed at how ominous it looks. I need to do more reading about this fence. I have talked to residents of Brownsville to get their opinions. I find it interesting to listen to what they have to say, there are many, many opinions.  


The fence goes on for miles and miles right now. There are different
"styles" to the fence.
We have friends that live across the road from one section of the fence.
Of course, we just had to walk over there and take a closer look. You don't realize how tall it is until you are standing next to it. The opening you can see down the road on the left of the picture is a driveway. Another story to follow about one of the driveways.
