Happy Independence Day. Today we honor the memory of when Texas was a free nation, free from being controlled or occupied by a foreign nation. May that memory inspire Texans to be free again someday.
Remember the Alamo
Remember Goliad
Remember the Republic

Think you meant your post for NLHale.
I’m already here.
We’ve been here for 4 generations. :)

Sorry, my bad. It was intended him and anyone else who was going to retire in Texas.

We’re flying the Lone Star today. I was just thinking today that I need to invest in a good quality Texas flag. I've got a small one, but it's not suitable for putting on my flag pole.

When I retire, I’m moving to TEXAS... Can't wait for you to get here, brother. You'll be a welcome addition.

For non-Texans, the photo in post 23 is the Riverwalk in San Antonio.
The San Antonio river runs through San Antonio, and is lined with fabulous outdoor cafes, hotels and other attractions, including river boat rides through the whole thing.

Texas is the largest of the contiguous states. Texas is as large as Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, New York, and all of New England combined; Connecticut and Rhode Island could almost fit inside Brewster county, the state’s largest county.

Most of the pics I posted for Hale seemed have mysteriously disappeared, so I'll post 'em again:
Texas Hill Country
Texas Piney Woods
Big Bend Country
Texas Gulf Coast
The Texas coast is like no other. Stretching about 367 miles as the crow flies along a gentle arc that makes up the northwestern edge of the Gulf of Mexico, there are actually over 3,300 miles of shoreline along its islands, bays and river mouths.

Texas hill country... I love foothills, mountains, etc.
Truth be told, I’m good ANYWHERE I’m around people who love their Country as much as I do.
