Island Of Galveston
Horse Stuff

......Around the historical neighborhoods you will see occasional oddlooking fenceposts. These were used for tying up one's horse during the days before the 'horseless carriage.'

......You may also see the occasional large slab of granite or shaped concrete sitting by the edge of a curb. No, these are not tombstones! These were used as steps to assist people when climbing into carriages.
