The Alamo

Yes, we made it all the way down and back, here are a few shots of Mr. Greer himself, standing in front of the Alamo shrine (church). Not at all like the movies, it is now surrounded by buildings and more buildings and more buildings...







The famous Long building, where many soliders were treated after being injured. It was also used as a convent when it was a mission in the 1800s. For 300 hundred years Spain tried to assimilate the population into Catholicism, by building missions around this area. Mexico won its independence from Spain thus Texas was part of the Republic of Mexico. You will have to go to get the rest of the story...very inspiring, I will remember to stand up for what is right.



The line in the sand... where Travis asked the men to join him on this side if they wanted to stay and fight!
