Happy Birthday TEXAS

Postby OldUsedParts » Tue Mar 02, 2021 6:41 pm

On this day in 1836 at Washington on the Brazos, Texas declared Independence. :bow: :texas:

Later the Texas Flag was designed and made here in Montgomery, Texas and Y'all should have seen the Lone Stars waving proudly Here today. :texas: :texas: :texas: :texas: :texas: :texas: :texas: :texas:

The history of this great state is absolutely fascinating. I was not aware of the flag being made in Montgomery. Thanks for posting Parts and nice photos.

I gotta give the credit of remembering it to, Texas-Tobe, when I saw his Post on FB. I bleed Lone Star Red White and Blue but I had forgotten it until I saw his Post. Thanks T-Tobe :tup: :salut: :texas:

Obscure question, how many are aware there have actually been 9 flags that have flown over our Great State? I’m sure our East Texas members grew up knowing this, I was just real late to the party. :texas:

I have heard 3 numbers, 6, 7 & 9, debated (argued) with valid points but I choose to relate to 6 :salut: :texas:
