P. O. Box 1731 La Porte, Texas 77572-1731 Preface : SUMMER FOLKS 'N YEAR-ROUND NEIGHBORS is more than history having its say. It is the people who made it having their say. From the days of covered, ox drawn wagons through the days of trains and automobiles to the days of aircraft, life has wound out marvelous adventures here in a year-long summer place on the mainland shores of Galveston Bay. The glimpse of lively doings, social minglings, uncomplicated gatherings and peaceful, safe and happy existence as it was in the last decade of the past century and the first five decades of this one, rests secure between the covers of this book. The stories of the Bayshore's first families, told most often in their own words, will requite those lonesome for the old days and enlighten those who are too young to have experienced them. In the memories held gently on the pages, readers are privileged to go home again, even if they never had a home before. Visit with Bayshore families; vicariously live at St. Mary's Seminary;kick-up your heels at Sylvan Beach dances; sail on Galveston Bay; stroll along Main Street both in La Porte and New Town; spend time on the shore, including moments at the old Sylvan Hotel and the Houston Yacht Club. Community: caring, loving, triumphing, playing, working, failing, succeeding, joking, living and yes, even dying declares its existence with honesty, dignity and humor. Alovely time comes calling one last time for the homesick, the curious and the adventurous of heart.
