“We’re 50 million tons bigger than number two.” The busiest port, by tonnage, in the US will soon better accommodate bigger and bigger ships. I recently got an exclusive look at work to widen + deepen the Houston Ship Channel with @Port_Houston. My story on @KHOU at 6:00 #khou11

Help #EndtheStreakTx #Thanksgiving week by following these driving tips: stay focuseed, buckle your seat belt, put the phones away, and never drink and drive. Lastly, remember that the left lane is for passing only while traveling on highways.

Our prayers are with the Carmichael Family as they mourn the loss of Bud Carmichael--a long time TXTA member. Bud owned C&R Trailer Repair & served on TXTA's Board for many years. His memory will live on through his friends in the industry. Rest in Peace, Bud! You will be missed.
