- 0:30Just wanted to get something uploaded since I missed last week, but because my wife and I went to Washington on the Brazos, which is down in Washington, Texas, and it is the founding of Texas.
- 0:40It is where Texas signed its Declaration of Independence.
- 0:44It's original constitution, and it was the original capital of the Republic of Texas, and it was absolutely fascinating.
- 0:53And if you look at the Texas Revolution, there's a lot of similarities between it and our War of Independence with England, in that one of the first things that Mexico did that kind of was the triggering point, the kind of battle of Lexington, was the Battle of Gonzales.
- 1:09And that is where they sent their forces to Gonzales, Texas, to take away a cannon that they had given to the people of Gonzales to help protect themselves.
- 1:19And the people of Gonzales weren't having any of it.
- 1:21Things had already started to heat up and this was really the beginning of the end and it is really the beginning of the Texas Revolution.
- 1:30And that's where the, the saying come and take it takes place.
