Lime Jell-O Salad U-Haul

School must be just around the corner. Morningside Drive was filled with U-Haul and Ryder trucks of students moving in. It is too early for the undergrads, so these must have been from one of the professional schools. In any event, the first thing that popped into my mind when I saw this U-Haul was "Why is there a picture of Lime Jell-O Salad molds on the side of that U-Haul?"
After closer inspection I saw that the pictures weren't of Jell-O (darn!), but of the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary a hundred miles away from Houston in the Gulf of Mexico. I had not heard of the Sanctuary before now. According to what I read. the banks are the northernmostl coral reefs in the United States. The reefs are teeming with life, and the sanctuary is of great scientific interest and a premiere recreational diving location.
Does it seem strange to you that U-Haul would feature on their trucks a location that is a hundred miles out to sea, where there are very few roads?
