Did they find any unknown obscure diseases they can bring back? That seems to be the big thing now.

I have visited the site, spending much of the day in the museum looking at the many artifacts and stories of the raw frontier.

Well worth the drive if you are anywhere nearby.

This is a very important part of Texas history that should be preserved.

Over the years I’ve visited Jefferson’s home in VA, and I understand that they have changed the historical presentation to paint Jefferson as an evil slaveholder.

I hope Texas can do better.
