175 years ago today...

San Jacinto Day.

Mosey over to JPG's wonderful archived piece from 2008 for more, and I always love Blackfork's blog for his evocative posts on the subject of the Texians' struggle for independence. No small wonder that to have descended from such fearless folk is a point of much pride and honor amongst contemporary Texans.

I don't remember which, but there was a blog post the other day, describing the difference between a Texan and a Texian. They said, "Channel your inner Texian!"
Being a descendant of Stephen and Moses, I most certainly am! gfa
