Cruise Cat Posted September 20, 2008 #1 Share Posted September 20, 2008 Here is some good news for Galveston. The Spot Restaurant and Tiki Bar is getting back up on it's feet again. There Webcam came back up today http://www.galveston.com/webcams/thespot/frameset.html They have some tables on the patio again and the exterior looks in good shape. I expect to see them open soon. This is a good sign for Galveston and just goes to show you the strong character of the residents. Definitely going to have a beer there in the near future or at least the day before my next cruise.

Scooters Posted September 21, 2008 #2 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Yep, It looks like both cameras from the Spot are up. The rest are still down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shmthaus Posted September 21, 2008 #3 Share Posted September 21, 2008 well - looks like it was up for a while anyway! How great to see progress in on our little island! Cruise Cat - how bout if we all go get that beer together! (oops, just realized I was signed in as Chuck - this is Ali!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyMac Posted September 21, 2008 #4 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Please don't speculate on Galveston being up and running any time soon. The "Spot" webcam may look like things are fine, but they are not. You cannot get into Galveston and they will be out of commission for a long time. Residents are being allowed to reenter Wednesday on a "look and leave" order. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buckanear Posted September 21, 2008 #5 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Residents who live behind the seawall are allowed to stay. Residents who do not live behind the seawall are on "look and leave" orders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Julie Koefoot Posted September 21, 2008 #7 Share Posted September 21, 2008 Cruise Cat, The Spot is one of my favorite places in Galveston. Glad to hear things are looking up! I know all of out costal neighbors need our prayers and support. Galveston is a great beach town and I love visiting there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little over a week in Houston and things are almost back to normal. Now if I could only find some fencing supplies at a hardware store, I'd be back to normal too. :p :rolleyes: :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
