    There may be a few there, but I can't recall many on the road.

    Galveston, like New Orleans has a LOT of "old money" behind closed doors.
    A car dealer there has a museum of Brass Era cars and such.....

    A new exotic would either be linked to recent Strand Street redevelopement or "commodities distrubution" in The Projects!

    Wait a minute, I was down there the other day, visiting old friends.........

    I own a 348TB SS and live about 30 miles from galveston. However, not really sure about parking near the cruise ship terminals. If some VIP parking was available, I might be willing to come down for a few hours.

    Also, don't take this the wrong way. But by looking at your picture, I'm not sure you will fit in my kevlar racing seats. It might be a snug fit.

    Whoaaaaahahahaha...no no no..I never take this thing in a wrong way.
    Only the fact that a Ferrari will come over and all 3000 people will
    look and see the visit is good enough for me hehehe...
    Maybe if you want to bring your girlfriend or something and come for a coffee it's fine by me...
    Will be nice to meet as many Ferrari owners in Texas as possible
    November 13th will be the date and its Saturday

    Is Thanksgiving a Greek holiday?

    My best restaurant here is run by a cool Greek guy, he has a turkey with dressing every Friday...he made the front page of the Houston Chronicle last year on July 4, for his fervent US patriotism!

    George Mikalis, is his name....he knows everyone that comes in by name, no matter how long it's been...he teases me about knowing AJ Foyt, Jr. and for winning the Houston Texaco Grand Prix, that one time.....a really good guy!
