Every day is a wonderful day. Yesterday we crossed over on the ferry to the Bolivar peninsula, the area that received the direct hit from Hurricane Ike. Dolphins accompanied us on the journey along with the laughing gulls. We visited Joyce and Robbie at their lovely home on the canal, very close to the Intra-coastal canal. Their home has been all spruced up and restored from the damage from Ike, and now it looks like a new home. Many homes have not been rebuilt so the neighborhoods look a bit sparse. Our day was lovely, talking and eating and enjoying ourselves.
Today Marilyn and Richard and Tupin came down for the day from Houston. Again we talked and talked, ate lunch at our apartment, walked the beach in the afternoon and dined in another great restaurant,"Willie G's" with the five of us and Alice Anne. We all knew each other from years ago but you would never know we had not seen each other for years. It was great sport.
It has been one wonderful day followed by another wonderful day here in Galveston. But this will soon end. After lunch with Alice Anne and the DeGroot's tomorrow, we will depart the island and begin our journey to Jackson. Now Ken and I just must visit Marilyn and Richard in Colorado during the summer. Perhaps in the Fall of 2012.
