John James Audubon comes to Galveston
5:13 here’s a Jim dandy of an idea: let’s we, as a nation, stop inserting ourselves into every shoving match, bush war and hot spot across the globe. Then we will have significantly fewer lost servicemen to commemorate. I am 1000% for a kick a** military and I’ll even buy portions of the narrative behind the GWOT, but with our borders a worldwide joke it’s super disingenuous-like, criminally disingenuous-to continue “projecting force” anywhere and everywhere in the guise of “national security.” Let’s insist on a return to who we were when we entered WW2 and who we were upon victory 5 years later. To quote Alexis DeToqueville “Americans are great because they are good.” We need to call all hands on deck and return to the true spirit and meaning of that observation. Made over 200 years ago. We can and must do so. I personally believe it’s what nearly all of us want. Before the world stage throws us out and bolts closed the door.
You forgot "once in a lifetime..."
Great job, J.R.!
Hi again. You may know of a street out west of town named Ostermeyer Road. It's name came from a family that lives or lived out there. I don't know if they are still in that area but they are a wonderful family and had been out there for many, many decades. Just an idea because of the history they no doubt have of Galveston.
Are we going to be able to purchase the film to watch online?
Hello. My name is Steve Kelley and I grew up in Galveston. Was born in Corpus in 1956 but raised on the Island. Thank you for this awesome podcast and for all the others here that join in with all of their stories. My dad was a postman and his route was in the center of the historical district during the later 60's to early 70's. Occasionally mom would drop me off for a couple hours so I could walk with dad on his route which was a blast. The only thing I did not enjoy was seeing so many of the older, beautiful homes decaying. And later on my dad was the owner of Kelley's Locksmith Shop. And he had the privilege of doing much of the lock work and other hardware work on the Elissa. I moved away in 89', bad mistake, but I have lived many places but now in San Antonio but Galveston will always be my home.
Hey Steve, it’s nice to hear your fond memories from this days. I can only imagine what it was like to see the island before all of the last 30+ years of restoration. Thanks for sharing and I appreciate you tuning in!
@@galvestonunscripted Thank you. My son is in Tucson but is eating all of this up. Both of my kids are BOI kids but we moved to Houston for a few years so that's all they remember. But he is going crazy with your pod cast. I think you have discussed the native Indians that had been there long before we were? It's late and I can't remember off hand but up to my teenage years, mid 60's, there was some type of cement display mound out somewhere east of the St Park I think?And it had a few glass viewing ports to see what was supposed to be artifacts left by the Karankawa Indians. But I've heard it was eventually washed away by Ike I think? Anyway do you have a pod cast on that or anything about the natives on the island?
I’m really glad that you and your family are enjoying the show! Information on natives is hard to find, but I do have a few episodes that mention them! Shell Middens ruclips.net/video/UvtApkATFTE/видео.html

I visited the Bryan Museum a few months ago. It's a beautiful building and the exhibits were fascinating.
It’s a wonderful place!!
Excellent video.
Thanks so much!
No way would I have a funeral pyre in my back yard.
lol times were tough at that moment
I can definitely feel my mood change for the better every time I cross over Galveston Bay 😊❤
It’s a vibe!!
As someone moving to the island and living on a “1/2” street, thank you for the info! I love history and lore, the more about this amazing island the better!
Thanks for watching and I’m glad this helped! Welcome to the island!! So much to explore!!
My favorite sandbar
Absolutely!!!
Our home is at 1512 24st Galveston. I was told by a local resident who was very knowledgeable about the island that after the 1900 storm lumber came to shore and rested by M1/2 and 24th st. He told me that our home and the other homes in the area were built with that lumber. I was wondering if you knew anything about it? Thank you!!
I do! Check out this video! It’s the same concept as the storm, just after the 1885 fire! ruclips.net/video/-4SE5IkqdzY/видео.htmlsi=9fmottwcAAaPJ_tZ
@ Our house was built in 1906. We think that our house was slave or servant quarters. The main house sits on N1/2 and 24th. Thank you for the fast response. We are definitely enjoying your videos! Thank you
@@MadelONeil thanks for watching! Wild house history! I don’t live far from you!
Love your channel! Excellent production skills!
Thank you very much!!
I thoroughly enjoyed this video! What a beautiful home! I just love watching renovations.
Thanks for watching!!!
we need more info on the customs house ,especially the basement
I lived in Galveston when Carla hit. I was 5. My father was stationed at the Coast Guard base in Galveston. He gave Dan Rather a ride while patrolling the streets during the hurricane.
Wow! I would love to hear more of those stories.
Yes, no such thing as climate change...that whole narrative has been shown as false and the data planted for research will be skewed. . But, weather manipulation has been a problem, weather weaponization is a real thing. These hurricanes with warmer seas have gotten bigger and more dangerous. The warmer seas are accredited to HAARP and the heaters they have put under the water out there. This is research independent for weather. While I'd like to be in the majority believing what the media releases., I can't when I have seen the deliberate attempt to mask the truth.
Bay citian here 👍👍😎
That Bay City OT. 👍
@@Marinobernal979 thanks for watching!!!!
One entitled karen from California that just moved in to texas was complaining and talking mess , i said you know theres a wonderful beach thats clean here I will give the address, and i proceed to give her the address to California, and said you should try going , and staying there please 😂😂
It's amazing!
Thanks!!!
Great video! It's hard to imagine now that rivets were used to construct huge skyscrapers and ships.
It really puts into perspective the skill and labor that went into constructing all of these structures!
Great work…owe you a coffe sometime around Red Light
Thanks you! Let's go!
Awesome video. Thanks for giving Bolivar some love.
Thanks for watching! Bolivar is amazing. It deserves more recognition!
I suggest the book They Made Their Own Law by Melanie Wiggins, if you haven’t read it already. Some great info on the peninsula in there
@ I’ll check it out! Thank you!!
Native Houstonian here... love your channel... thanks for your hard work!!! ❤
Thanks for watching! I appreciate you tuning in!
Because that's where JR Ewing had oil waste dumped.
JR! WHAT A CLIFF HANGER!
Looks very cool! Can't wait for the big video.
Stay tuned!
Looks like a fun series!
Oh wow. I’m gonna love this.
Are they ever open to the public for tours? I am curious now.
No, I don’t believe so. However, they have events there constantly.
My alley story is….the bootleg beer seller that would sell after hours in the alley.
Caseoh took a dookie in it
Wow, she’s passionate and well informed about the Tremont.
Well made, informational and engaging video. Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
and mixed with thousands of gallons of oil offshore 🤣
Excellent explanation. I knew most of this but your vid brought back the facts.
