This is a p.s. to my previous post.

On Dec. 4, Galveston’s East End Historical District Association will have its 20th annual “A Victorian Christmas” Homes Tour featuring five East End homes decorated for the Christmas season from 6 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. Dec. 4.

Wish I could be there myself.

Here’s the article from The Daily News out of Galveston County.

On the first weekend of December, the Galveston Historical Foundation will hold its annual Dickens on the Strand Festival. Except this year it will be a celebration of the rebuilding that has taken place since the town was flooded by a storm surge on Sept. 13, 2008.

If you think those people in Galveston don’t know how to recover from a storm, take a look at this post.

Did you know that downtown Galveston has one of the largest collections of restored 19th century iron-front commercial buildings in the country?

The event is a celebration of Galveston’s Victorian roots. Charles Dickens’ great-great-great-granddaughter will be there signing books.

Here’s episode 3 of the series I started back on Sept. 28. Episode 2 was on Oct. 6.

The panels are absolutely beautiful. And I love the part with the steel wool. Mr. Whitley is no amateur.

Enjoy.
