Yeah, Don, it's pretty amazing!   The shots were not with a 15 or something
that exaggerated the size of the place.  Just a 35mm equiv. lens.  I've
filmed ship  launches at Pascagoula.  I do believe you are right, this one
could accommadate.

Besides the private launch a half mile away, there are two more Red River
Waterway Commission launches in service within ten miles of this one.  I
guess we are gonna save fishermen's fuel by having enough launch areas
spotted around.
