May 30 – Re-Birth-Day Celebration – Galveston
Still feeling the effects of Ike, Galveston is determined to moved forward,
rebuild and make a significant come back. Saturday, we strolled the streets of
historic downtown Galveston; along the way we ran into so many of our island
friends. Most were wearing flip flops, and t-shirts but all were wearing big
smiling faces. It was a wonderful feeling to know that recovery is alive and
doing well on the island.
Listen in, to Talk of the Bay, as we get reactions from some of the
other folks out on the streets.
And just to let you know: Mod Coffee Shop on Postoffice is now open as is so
many of the shops along Postoffice street; including a cute little clothing
boutique called Ha-Ba’s. Also, the Tremont hotel is expected to open this week.
We also hope to hear from Tommy LeCroy about the re-opening of Bistro LeCroy; a
great Cajun eatery.
Many thanks to Crash Boat Johnny and The Pirates for their original song
dedicated to Harold Backe, proud Papa to Brandon Backe; a Galveston resident and
a pitcher for the Astros.
Happy Re-Birth-day Galveston!
