When I heard of the hurricane and saw it on television over here in Germany it was quite scary. Amazing how people are able to pick up and start over. I am also happy to see your son has recovered well from his surgery and is enjoying life to the fullest. Thanks for stopping by my blog.

Though the brown pelicans seem to enjoy both sides equally as far as I can tell. ;-)<br /><br /><b>Hello Lone Star Queen,</b><br />It's a pleasure to meet another Texas blogger. Thank you for the add. I've returned the favor.Dawnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01818111801666078642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8531989186587247129.post-26235058086947548242009-09-17T21:43:51.435-05:002009-09-17T21:43:51.435-05:00These are some great photos.

It is so heart warming to see them pick back and up and rebuild.

I'm glad to see that much is on its way to recovery, but sad to see what is gone. That Flagship Hotel has always been in my memory as part of the seawall view -- is it really going away? And the poor oak trees -- oh, that makes me sad.Meredith/Great Stemshttp://www.greatstems.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8531989186587247129.post-26576108661074947172009-09-15T08:22:58.868-05:002009-09-15T08:22:58.868-05:00Such an upbeat post, Dawn, thanks!

We often went to Galveston when we lived in The Woodlands and were sad at the great amount of damage done, but the strong willed Texans showed what they were made of with all the hard work they have done. That house is a wonder, the views out to the ocean must be fabulous. :-)<br />Franceshttp://fairegarden.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8531989186587247129.post-51940379892180726362009-09-13T09:03:18.241-05:002009-09-13T09:03:18.241-05:00We stopped at Galveston for less than 24 hours one...We stopped at Galveston for less than 24 hours one fall - actual destination was the Space Center. Our intention was to come back, but it never happened. Seeing the news stories last year was shocking, and of course one feels sorry for all the people involved. <br /><br />Thanks for sharing your memories and links and photos and observations - your feeling of being connected to Galveston and the Annie in Austinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14662139490401110432noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8531989186587247129.post-34472442440830060632009-09-09T14:05:01.398-05:002009-09-09T14:05:01.398-05:00We spent a long weekend in Galveston the end of Ju...We spent a long weekend in Galveston the end of July. I was surprised it looked as good as it did. I hope some of the old oaks make it. It was sad to see them like that. I spent many summers there as a kid. I have added you to my blog role. It's nice to have a fellow texan on the roll!Debhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01321004025251957006noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8531989186587247129.post-10704081650773605762009-09-08T16:39:56.958-05:002009-09-08T16:39:56.958-05:00Lovely photos indeed Dawn.... such a serene beach,...Lovely photos indeed Dawn.... such a serene beach, good for a quiet vacation.
