Road Trip Wednesday

Today, my wife, son, younger stepson and I went to Gonzales, TX. Their claim to fame is that the Texas Revolution started there when Santa Ana wanted his cannon back, and 18 Texans from Gonzales stood off 150 Mexican dragoons. I also note that Gonzales is near Luling, and we ate at the Luling City Market. Not the Luling City Market in Houston, but the one actually in Luling.

It was most marvelous. You buy the meat in the smokehouse and when they open the smokers, the most amazing smoke comes boiling out. I ate too much and didn't even contemplate despoiling it with sauce.

And we saw the cannon in the museum in Gonzales. It was just a tiny little thing. T-Bob took pictures and is going to write a report for school when it starts up again Monday, after spring break.
