John`s Recollections - 2010
This drive along the coastal roads near Galveston along with a ferry ride in the immediate area allowed one to see the flatness of the land and the amount of shipping in the Galveston harbor. It was nice to get off the expressways, sit back and watch the port activities in Galveston. State Road 87 allowed that access to the ferry from Port Bolivar.
