This details my visit to the State capitol of Texas-Austin and what I learned there.
The Street starts at the
original steps of the State
Capitol of Texas in Austin.
It is called Congress Street.
You can see down the hill
for miles around.
Before 1950, from 1925-1927,
Miriam Ferguson and other women
were the GOVERNOR of TEXAS!
I find that REMARKABLE!
Maybe, just MAYBE, The West Texas
Men of the Land in the 1920's,
REALIZED that the "Men could
not do the job of handling the
ranch without the help of a
womean!!!!!!!"
Quote by me!!!
I have a feeling that was only
the West Texas Men though.
Women STILL HAVE IT ROUGH,
EVEN TODAY and the YEAR IS
2003, NOT 1925! Major difference!
