y ~~ Friday’s Hunt v1.24 -- "X" is for ...

For the week of June 10th
1. Starts with X
2. Week's Favorite
3.  Wet (0r water)

(1)  The Letter "X" is for cross members.  Cross members are structural supports used in many applications, construction being one of the main places used.

Here are some pictures, one of a highway sign support (over the roadway) and the others where they are used in bridge construction.

Oh yes, I'm still out of pocket. Maybe next time?


(2)  This week's favorite is for the Tug Boat I caught on its way to help a ship to the dock for tying up alongside.  It reminds me of "The Little Tug that Could."
