Don't forget there's the 'Medals of Honor for everyone' day, or 'Veracruz' day.

That is one nice picture Jim ...

I wonder if they still have the San Jacinto Inn nearby it was at the head of the park and had a sweet deal on Sunday of all the chicken you could eat for the price of one meal.

What was more concerning was the fact I tried to order chips with my meal only to be reminded that they were what we call crisps in the UK....fries were the correct term apparently :oops:

I have to admit, that its right handy having a BB sitting right in the middle of your state when the urge to get into some WWI/II living history comes on..
