Happy Birthday Texas!!!

Today is Texas Independence Day! It was 174 years ago, on March 2, 1836 that 59 delegates worked overnight to write the Texas Declaration of Independence during the Texas Revolution. It was then that Texas declared it independence from Mexico. The event happened at what is now Washington-on-the-Brazos State Park. To learn more visit: www.birthplaceoftexas.com.
