I just heard they think it’s going to stall for about 12 hours near Goliad. That’s near Refurio isn’t it?

Refugio is between the Gulf and Goliad. Refugio is on US Hwy 77. Refugio is not far from the Gulf and not far from Goliad.

I believe it is marshy country around both Goliad and Refugio.

In the Texas War for Indepedence, there were battles at Goliad and Refugio. I went to school at the Catholic school, which had the Church where the battle was fought and still had bullet holes in the wall at that time.

The Texicans won the battles at both places but withdrew and then got lost. The Mexicans captured them and gave them no quarter as prisoners...
