Back From Vacation
Got back from vacation yesterday. We had a great time, but now I need to finish up going over the copyedit/proof of The Serpent Sea. So here's some photos:
These are the views from where we were staying.
The Strand, with the art deco Moody Building at the end.
The view from where we had lunch one day at Fisherman's Wharf.
Fisherman's Wharf
Close up of the Moody Building facade.
1920s restored Star Drugstore and Soda Fountain.
Bishop's Palace. Yes, it does look like a medieval castle. Yes, it is virtually hurricane proof.
Someone's pretty house.
Moody Mansion. Not so hurricane-proof. They're still trying to get water from Ike out of the basement walls. Interesting in that it was built to be a formal Victorian house, with a very formal lifestyle, but when the Moodys bought it after the 1900 hurricane, they lived in it like a modern house, and let the kids run free over the whole place and hung a hammock on the front porch.
Sidewalk on Broadway.
Another pretty house.
ditto
My whole Galveston Gallery is there, if you want to see more pictures.
