Galveston Island Sunsets & TBPW Fall Food Fest!

By
Real Estate Agent with Results Realty

TBPW Fall Food FestOne of the things that I LOVE about living in the Tomball area is the amenities that are available.  One of these amenities happens to be easy access to the Gulf.  Within an hour and a half  we can be in either Galveston or at the bay.  I have always had a huge attraction to the water and that is a perk of living in the Northwest Houston area that I LOVE. 

Recently the Tomball Business and Professional Women's (TBPW) Fall Food Fest committee had our planning meeting at one of our member's Galveston Island Beach house for the weekend.  We caught some great sunset while we were there. 

I hope you enjoyed the sunsets but while I am here I can't help but give a plug for the TBPW Fall Food Festival which is coming up on Thursday October 18th from 11:30 AM to 1:30 PM at Tomball College Conference Center.  We are currently selling raffle tickets.  We have some great raffle items and all proceeds go to benefit scholarships and others in need.  We will have restaurants from the area giving sample.  Adult plates are $7.00 with discounts given for senior and children plates.  There will also be a silent auction.  Please contact me if you would like additional information.

For all your real estate needs, contact me today!

I would take a trip just for the sunset and the tree is beautiful! It is nice to live in an inland city like Tomball and yet a short distance to the beach.

Paula, being originally from Kansas I love being able to get to the beach in 1 1/2 hours as opposed to 10 hours.  The sunsets were gorgeous.  I'm sure we get similar sunsets here but we can't see them for all the trees.

Marchel - It is late at night and this was the perfect thing to see before going to sleep.  Thank you for sharing such awesome shots via the virtual tour.

I was in Galveston labor day 2006. We spent 8 days and loved it. Would have loved to see Tombal.

Christopher, Galveston is a fun place, glad you enjoyed it.  Tomball is about an hour and half north west of Galveston.  They are totally different however.  Around the Tomball/Spring area we have lots of towering pine trees and hardwoods.  Until I moved here I had no idea that parts of Houston had so many trees!

Patrick, I'm very much a novice at this but I am enjoying it.  She had something reflective on the window to keep the sun out and it made a beautiful sunset reflection.  Thanks for checking my Galveston sunset out!
