Description
(Original Caption) 9/25/1967-Brownsville, Tx- An adventurous sightseer braves heavy rains and blowing water for a close-up view of two shrimp boats aground near Port Isabel. The vessels were forced to the beach by the violent winds of Hurricane Beulah. Floodwaters from Beulah broke through a concrete flood diversion dam at Mercedes, September 24th, drawing a watery trap around thousands of persons living along the normally grassy little floodway.
