Views of the Neighborhood – Crochet Art – John Howell

Art can be found in many places and thanks to John Howell, we now have a special view of the neighbourhood in Port Aransas as well. The crochet artist remains anonymous and that is a mystery in itself.

Fiction Favorites

Today’s view of the neighborhood is very unusual. Every year during the holidays an unknown person decorates the bollards that serve to keep cars away from certain parts of the beach. These decorations are hand crochets, and each one is unique. What is surprising is one day they are not there and the next they are. The same goes for when they disappear. I hope you enjoy this mystery. (Where else but in Port Aransas?)

This will give you an idea of what the bollards do. They keep cars from driving on the beach. The building on the right can be seen from a distance as part of the last photo.
