YESTERDAY....

Yesterday was San Jacinto day, here in Texas. I waited until today to write, as I wanted to be sure...NOTHING in the paper about it. Now, I think that is odd. One of the biggest days in Texas history, and nothing. Oh well..

We drove from the Beach to Austin yesterday. We had to go through Houston on I 10. You drive right by the Monument. It was fun to look over at the tall spiky monument on the day that all the fighting took place. Santa Anna's demise! Jay said he was there as a boy scout about 70 years ago. He was 14 years old, and remembers "acting out the battle"..Isn't that interesting???

Shame on our paper for not even knowing it was San Jacinto Day.
