No, that looks like the Marathon Oil Refinery in Reserve, LA. I have a lot of family near there. The photos looks to me to be showing delivery of that "vessel" from a ship on the Mississippi, over the levy and the "River Road" to Marathon.

Because she's among the best! Allison Fisher may be a smidgeon better...but on any given day Karen gives Allison more than she can handle. Allison Fisher: "The Dutchess of Doom"...Karen Corr: "The Irish Invader".
(edit) I wear a huge lens pair of "dork glasses" when I play too...hard to have a lens to peer through with today's skinny eyeglasses fashion. Uh, I'll be the first to admit that Karen & I have little in common when it comes to pool skill...but I do have the same style "moosehead" bridge in my cue case.

Looks like an SPG Roller crank from some sort of four banger motor. We used to build some pretty cool motors with those for Vdubs back in the day.

Mandatory pic.

Supe, that crank is multi-piece and pinned and has no rod caps, similar to a two stroke PWC or motorcycle engine. that's why I was curious.
