1. I'm in Galveston, where it began!

Unfortunately, it is raining really hard, so I doubt the parade will go on. I hope the other events, such as the reading of the proclamation, willhave alternative arrangements indoor available.

4. I just found out I'm about to be related to black people!

On Juneteenth! haha

My cousin is pregnant, and the father, her boyfriend is black. Sit back and watch family uproar. I think it will be good for them, damn rednecks. When they have a cute, wonderful little baby to love and nurture, they'll realize that its skin color doesn't matter where love it concerned. I hope. So far no one has said they're going to disown her, so we're making great strides in the progressive rednecks dept.

Anyway, I remember thinking when I was a little kid that we'd all be better off if everybody was "mixed".

I love Juneteenth. Another one of those great things about Texas.
