We got plenty of room, Hale. 268601 Sq miles, in fact. Take your pick.


What does 268,601 square miles look like?

If you include the original boundaries of Texas, half of England would be inside that map.

You are welcome to join us anytime. Just remember all is not perfect, even in Texas. So do not expect to find rainbows and unicorns and other measures of perfection here.

Ah, but I regress. The food is excellente, the music is fantastic, the booze is plentiful, the woman beautiful, and the neighbors friendly and armed (remember, mind your own business and not theirs). If could go on but you get the idea.

Seriously, we have a kindred spirit and a historical past of individual freedom and liberty. The Texas revolution of independence from Mexico created the Republic of Texas and in 1845 we became a state. We truly are a nation-state and really want to be left alone to live our lives under the constitution of Texas and the U.S.A. We won’t secede from the USA, but they might kick us out because we won’t live under tyrant rule.

BTW, my ancestors came to Texas shortly before Davy Crockett. Seems they stole some horses in Tennessee and decided to take early retirement in Texas also. That ended my genealogy research in it’s tracks. Which is to say not all Texans are descendants of presidents or royalty.

I hope you will join me in a toast to Texas Independence day and the patriots who lived and died for the cause.
