I like my chocolate milk ice cold.seamusTX wrote:It can be bad during the days, but if USA1 left Tomball at 5 a.m., he could be having breakfast with me at 7.LarryH wrote:I don't think you'd really want to make that drive on a weekend.

If I lived that close my entire family would be down there just about every weekend. But I'm about half way on the other side of the State, so the drive is about 5-6 hrs for us.

Not for long. The owner, Landry's, announced yesterday that it will be demolished because it is beyond economically feasible repair.joe817 wrote:1965 - On this date in 1965, the first hotel in America built on a pier, opened in Galveston. The Flagship Hotel is built on a 340 foot wide "Pleasure Pier", and extends a full quarter mile into the Gulf of Mexico. [ Is it still there? ]
An amusement park similar to the Kemah boardwalk will be built on the pier. That was the first use of this pier.
