Galveston, Galveston

We finally got to go to Galveston this past weekend to see Serena. D'Lynn and the kids went down on Friday and Larry and I went on Sat. We even saw some neighbors when we were down there. The Mohrs from down the road were there with their family.

The kids had a great time at the beach even though it was a little windy and cool. Kids do not care.




Here are Larry and I with our babies.


This is one of the homes Larry and Rena and I toured on Sunday afternoon. They have some really nice Victorian homes there and then we drove around and looked at more and then took a walk that evening around where Rena lives and looked at the outside of a bunch of them. Also had some excitement while we were down there. A riot broke out on the seawall where they were having a concert and 12 people got arrested and the sirens went on and on. Rena lives within walking distance of the wall and we were able to see all kinds of cop cars come and go and try to get cars directed out of the area. It was crazy. First time Larry and I have ever been in a town while a riot was going on. Needless to say Serena was glad we were there and we were glad we were with her, too. This is her first spring break in Galveston and I think she is just going to hunker down for the rest of the week. We did eat at some really good restraunts and enjoyed our visit very much. Now we just need to see when we can go again when there are not so many people there.

We also finally stopped at Bucee's on the way back from Galveston. Man that place has just about anything you want even though it is just a convenience store.
