    September 2023, we took a historical adventure down to Goliad and then back east to the San Jacinto Battlegrounds. We spent the entire day driving around the entire site and getting out and walking to see each specific area. We ended the day with a walk through of the monument museum. It’s an amazing place and all Texans should visit it to see where our Republic was born. Great podcast!!!
