TALK of
the BAY
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!
