Remember the Alamo



Another quick grab...this time of my parents in front of a painting at the Texas capital depicting the fall of the Alamo. As a native Texan, this photo makes me homesick for my family and my home state.
SR fun fact #1: I dressed up as Mexican president Santa Anna in fourth grade for a class project on Texas history. My costume consisted of my dad's navy blazer and various track and field pins and medals he won in high school.
Based on this painting of Santa Anna ... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antonio_López_de_Santa_Anna
...my costume wasn't too far off.

PS - Contrary to Pee Wee's belief, there is no basement in the Alamo.
