Baytown, just east of Houston, Texas











Well, the weather didn't improve and there was a lot of Texas, but we finally pulled into Connie and Joe's driveway to spend a few days. Their beautiful home is located on Trinity Bay (which is kind of connected to Galveston Bay and then to the Gulf of Mexico).

So off we went to see the sights. After seeing the Alamo, Joe thought we should see where the Texans actually won the battle with Santa Anna, and we visited the San Jacinto Monument. It was an excellent history lesson and the monument with its reflecting pool was really cool.
