| Page Views: 40 Last Visit to La Porte: June, 2008 | Gulf Town-San Jacinto State Park by msbrandysue - last update: Jun 16, 2008 |
I came to La Porte to visit the San Jacinto State Park with my friend Shanna. I don't work during the summer and thought it would be a treat to trace the history of Texas independence. After visiting the Alamo 6 months ago I thought how meaningful it would be to see the site of the victory after such defeat. Here you can see more of the markers, monument, museum, and the Battleship. |
|  | My Favorite Part I think my favorite part of the journey was driving around to all the historical markers and seeing where Santa Anna's camp was, where Houston was injured and where we made the advance upon the Mexican army. |
| | Surprise Attraction While Shanna was looking around the cemetary (not really my thing) I had a seat on the benches under a huge oak tree, facing the port and had a very nice time just watching the gigantic ships go by. I wish I had had my book with me. I think that's one of my favorite things to do: fine the serene in the history that took place hundreds of years ago. |
