This weekend in Kemah, TX a great Mardi Gras celebration
is going on complete with the Yachty Gras Boat Parade

The Truck Parade on Sunday in old town Kemah
will have the Hotly Contested Chair of the Galveston Republican
Party candidates Sandra Kelly and Chris Stevens in it and
all the other Republicans candidates in it. So come
on down and cheer them on the Neighbor Hood Democrats

Is this a good family oriented event? I have teenage daughters.

Absolutely! Kemah is very family friendly.
I would recommend against taking them to the Galveston Mardi Gras celebration though.

The pictures tell the story!
This is a kid friendly town and
we are backed up by a strong
Kemah Merchants Association
and City Council who know family
friendly makes economic sense.

The daytime Galveston parades and events are probably ok, but the evening Mardi Gras celebration can get pretty wild.

Howdy Neighbor!
I'm just across the bridge in Seabrook.
Looks like fun and a lot closer than Galveston. A lot more sane too, I'm sure.
