Seems like Galveston has recovered pretty quickly (*especially* comparing the situation to just 2 years ago) from the devastation of Hurricane Ike.  That was a solid video; I'll have to download that song. I wish we had warm, sunny beaches up in Northern California, like what I saw in this video! :-(

@FreewayBrent thanks Brent , well california coast line makes up for the pure beauty, despite, the weather winter months. thanks for your comment

[ScrewdUPClickV2]

@FreewayBrent Thanks to you of informing me of the genius sidebar in i tunes. i found this nice song .

[damonhynes]

I remember that Mickey D's right at the end, when I passed it was covered in seagulls! Looking forward to your TX-87 vid, the Port Bolivar ferry is a gas :-)

[ScrewdUPClickV2]

@damonhynes i currently have a galveston ferry video , i have to intentions of remaking it . but the next video will follow i-45 mile 3 to its terminus tx-87 through galveston to the seawall

Never been to Galveston, but it's a pretty nice tourist area. Yeah, news reporters are crazy! There's too many hurricanes for me to even consider being in that area!

[ScrewdUPClickV2]

@FreewayAndrew you get use to it .but i would never live that close to water , houston is bad enough when it floods , pretty much every time it rains.

TEXAS BEATS ANY STATE IN EVERY WAY

[answertotodayis1776]

Does the beach ever officially close there or can you be there whenever you want? Why is the water brown there but in Florida it is blue, i don't get it it's the same gulf of water?

[KingFlavored]

I rarely respond to videos. But your work is awesome, music is perfect and information is interesting. Keep up the good work!

[MrPhillip380]

[Carlittos7777777]

[gopconservative78]

ITS DOENST MATTER WHERE YOU LIVE. THERES HURRICANES, TORNADOS, MUDD SLIDES, BELOW FREEZING TEMPERTURES, BREAKOUTS, SAND BLIZZARDS EARTHQUAKES. IT DOESNT EVEN MATTER NO MORE WHERE YOU STAY. NEW YORK HAD A HURRICANE A SMALL TOWN IN TEXAS HAD EARTHQUAKE. ITS GLOBAL WARMING

[thisguycoop]

@answertotodayis1776 - It is open 24hrs/7days/365 days. The water is brown due to the Mississippi River run off @ Louisiana when it meets the Gulf. The current carries the murky water along the upper Texas coast. When you go a mile or so off shore in Galveston, the water is clear and blue ! In far south Texas "South Padre Island" the water is a light blue-ish/turquoise color, but thats 360 miles southwest of Houston... Check out South Padre Island pics on Google ;-)
