J and I went on vacation with JL and CL. It was JL's 45th birthday on the 8th, so she wanted to go to one of her happy places, Galveston! CL rented a cute little condo room that was across the street from a part of the Seawall. (Seawall Boulevard is 10 miles long; it's the big tourist trap area where all the vacationers stay.) It rained a good part of that weekend, but it made the weather much more tolerable because Texan summers are brutally hot. We ate brunch at Miller's Seawall Grill, had yummy dinners at Salsas and Mario's, drove to Houston to check out the Galleria Mall (I got a lobster charm from Pandora to commemorate the trip!), and got to enjoy some time at the beach with a snocone that an enterprising man with a cart sold to J.
