I had to make an effort to get out and see a little of the waterfront while I was here in Houston area. The closest place to do that was Kemah and the Boardwalk. When I’m driving and not really determined to stop at a specific place, I’ll wander a bit. Today was no different. I passed right by Kemah and meandered into a little town called San Leon. My sister was with me and we zig-zaged our way to the water and watched the shore birds and the water for a little while and I captured a few nice shots of fishing boats and the birds.

Then we heard an emergency siren. As it turned out we were just in time to see a parade! This was no parade like I’ve ever seen. Yes, it had a Halloween theme. But, every “float” was either a golf cart or four wheeler and nearly every one was decorated for the occasion.

We finally made it to the Kemah Boardwalk It reminded me of San Diego’s Seaport Village combined with Pacific Beach’s rides. It was a really nice day and we walked around the entire area and took in all the sights and sounds. No, we didn’t ride any rides. Just enjoyed the scenery. I hope you do too.
