Texas Independence
Happy 182nd Birthday Texas! While the Mexicans were laying siege to the Alamo, Texas' forefathers were busy at Independence Hall in Washington on the Brazos signing the Texas Declaration of Independence. My ancestors on my mother's side arrived in Texas a few years later when Texas was still and independent country. I am proud to call myself a Texan and proud of our heritage. It is a land of beaches, forests, deserts, mountains and so many other things in between. It is filled with pride unlike any place I have been.
