C20 Beach Pictures!

Cruised down to Galveston since the weather was so nice yesterday!

Got some pretty cool pics near the water, i forgot my good camera so I had to use my cellphone, but they came out pretty good still.

Re: C20 Beach Pictures!

All the NE guys will enjoy seeing those pics, they can look at them while they are on break from shoveling snow.

Nice pics, great truck.

Re: C20 Beach Pictures!

Great pictures! I lived in Galveston for 5 years and while I was there we would usually get picture perfect clear blue water about 3-5 days a year. The current, wind, and amount of rain all had to be perfect for it to happen; but it was nice when it did happen.
