The Pike in Long Beach was a seaside amusement area that offered a variety of entertainment options to the public. The streets were bustling with a mix of locals, sailors, and sea merchants who made Long Beach their port of call. The Pike had everything from bathhouses and arcades to food stands and fortune-tellers, and of course, tattoo parlors. At its height, The Pike was home to a dozen tattoo parlors and had quite a reputation for being a seedy destination. In 1954, The Pike changed its name to Nu-Pike in an attempt to rebrand itself to keep up with new family-friendly theme parks that had opened nearby.

The city of Port Arthur began as the dream of railroad man Arthur Stilwell, who envisioned it as a trade and tourism center. By the time the city was incorporated in 1898, Stilwell had founded the Port Arthur Channel and Dock Co., which welcomed its first ship to the port of Port Arthur the following year. In just two years, oil was discovered in nearby Beaumont, kicking off the Spindletop boom that would see Port Arthur become the biggest oil refining locale in the world by the mid-20th century. In 1948 the town held its Golden Jubilee celebration, 50 years after its incorporation as a city which centered around a parade with drummers marching down Procter Street trailed by floats, including one with the Golden Jubilee queen and her court.

Take charge of your life.

Inspired by my time in the Navy. Standing Aft Watch was a seemingly boring duty aboard ship, but standing alone at the fantail was a moment of hyper-awareness of time and space with the immense sea before you, the sky rising above, and the horizon disappearing. You simultaneously stood still, yet rushed through time, sleepy, hungry, lonely, pensive, anxious about everything in life but strangely at peace. Sometimes you numbly stood like another fixture on the ship till you heard a voice on the sound powered phones “Aft lookout! You awake! Report!!”
