Austin - Texas Independence Day

Texas State Capitol
On one of Scott's times home we got to do some sightseeing with some special visitors...
Independence Day Parade participants

These two are a teacher and her student from a local Austin school - she spent the last few months teaching about Texas history and then her and her students participated in the parade. She was explaining to us that the dress represents one of the Mexican States whose people were integral in settling Texas.

Independence Day in Texas is as big as July 4th...


My kind of horse...
