    Appears to be a little grid lock there.

    How about that, first time I look at the google earth contests and it happens to be a place I've read about. I don't know the name of the yard but I believe it is used to store plastic pellets. It's located south of Dayton, Texas NE of Houston.

    And it keeps growing. If you zoom out it goes to an older image where it is much smaller. I flew over it last week when landing at Houston IAH airport and it is even larger now.

    Well drat..........I checked the Gulf coastline. Not quite far enough inland.
    My map shows Seaburg Ranch as the closest location. A labeled airport that doesn't show.
    Ah well........Congrats.

    Oh, yeah. I believe you are correct. Forgot about that. You saw it flying in on approach to the airport in Houston.
