Remember the Alamo


On Black Friday we slept in to miss all the sales and instead decided to visit the Alamo and then attend a session at the San Antonio Temple. When you attend the temple here there is NO cafeteria nor clothing rental place so you have to bring all your clothes. Linda was needing a new dress so she picked out a really nice one (I would have bought that one if I needed a new dress). She looked great in it too.
At the Alamo, we gave the "quicky" tour. We first went to go see the short film put out by the History Channel. Afterward we looked at some cool rifles and other neat artifacts. Then we went to the little chapel and listened to the guide. Did you know that the hump was not originally there? They add it later. We then proceeded to one of our favorite places where there is a huge oak tree and a little square pool over near some library and posed for a couple of pictures.

I guided my Mom to your blog when we were on the phone and she said with a shriek "I took those photos!" I think she was quite excited!
