Texas independence still alive

Today is the 177th

anniversary of the signing of the

Texas Declaration of Independence

in 1836!!

On that day the Texians officially

broke away from Mexico

and became

The Republic of Texas

Texas still maintains the

fiercely independent spirit

it's always had throughout

it's history

.....  you can still see the

"COME AND TAKE IT"  flag

flying over the little

town of Gonzales

 

or hear the battle cry

Remember the Alamo

while visiting the
Historical Battle Grounds
at San Jacinto
where Texas won the Victory!!!!

Or remember Davy Crockett's
words to the Tennessee congress-

"You may all go to hell, and I'll go to Texas"

Texas is a great state
with a great history
and I can truly say-

I'm proud to be an American......

BUT I'M HONORED
TO BE A
6th GENERATION
TEXAN!!!!
