Happy Texas Independence Day, gentle readers! (Animated flag thanks to

El Jefe and I planned to celebrate with a mini-tour of the state this weekend. We started in Austin yesterday where we attended a big dinner honoring one of his clients at the
Texas State History Museum. This is a gorgeous museum, right near the Texas Capitol building. The dinner benefited the museum and attracted lot of politicians and "bidness" people. At the end of the dinner we all sang "Texas Our Texas", though I must say I was distressed to note that I was one of the few who knew our state song.
But alas, the cold El Jefe developed yesterday morning turned into full-blown flu and fever early this morning, so we had to cancel the rest of our trip with the Civil War Aficianados to Hillsboro and Fort Worth to see the Civil War museums and visit with some fun people. Reluctantly we headed home where El Jefe is now fast asleep and I am back from the store fully stocked with videos to amuse us with and stuff to make him feel better. Then I called SIL and found she and BIL and Dutch are all sick, too.
Nurse QG is being paged, so until I get back to the blog you can celebrate Texas Independence Day by practicing
Texas Our Texas.
