    Default HAPPY TEXAS INDEPENDENCE DAY

    Happy Texas Independence Day to all my fellow Texans



    March 2 marks the 180th anniversary of Texas independence. On this date in 1836, 59 delegates crowded into the tiny river town of Washington and passed, without debate, a declaration written primarily by George Childress that proclaimed Texas a republic independent from Mexico. On March 5 and 6, the occasion will be celebrated at the original spot, Washington-on-the-Brazos State Historic Site, about 80 miles northwest of Houston.
