The Strand

My fall vacation this year was for the most part down in Galveston Texas. A friend who attends the A&M Galveston campus has been bugging me to come and visit for many years now, so I finally got in my car and drove...yes drove, to Texas. I did it over the course of a good 48 hours from waking up at Midnight on the Saturday and arriving Midnight on the Sunday. Well worth the drive. One of the spots visits was The Strand Historic district of Downtown Galveston. I used both my D300 and my F4 loaded with my one and only roll of Agfa Scala 200x. The Scala needs to be sent out to Denver, CO for processing at Dr.5 so the roll will be mailed out Friday along with all my 4x5 and 120 colour film I've been saving up to send as a mass group to my pro-lab in Montreal.

But anyways...on with the photos!

Sounds like you have a great time. Lots of interesting buildings.

I really like the "shacks".

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks! Yeah, great trip, worth the drive there and back. But if I went back, i'd fly.
