I, Mimmyums, recently visited Meggyums in  her home hundreds of miles from mine. Her home happens to be a tiny island, off a tiny island, off the coast of Texas. The tiny island off Texas happens to be called as Galveston, known for it's beaches.
In my opinion, by far the most beautiful place on Galveston island is a street called 'THE STRAND'. It's Galveston's historic district filled with quaint coffee shops and beautiful old-timely buildings. Just off the strand was a lovely antique shop filled with beautiful pieces. On the strand was a army surplus store called Col. Bubbie's. Not really my type, but it was fun to go in! Don't go in if you are allergic to dust though! When on the strand look out for a little plaque outside the buildings the show how high the water was when hurricane Ike passed. One thing I really liked about the strand was that there was no chains. They really support the locals there. Right off the strand was a cute little coffee shop called 'Mod' where I had breakfast one morning. If you ever go to Galveston and run across Mod, be sure to drop in and and have a lemon square, YUMMY!
