The year was 1823, and on the fifth day of the eighth month, the Father of the great state of Texas, Stephen F. Austin, called into service a corps of ten men.
These men were to act as rangers, protecting the hundreds of families that had arrived in Texas following the Mexican War of Independence.
Since that time, the Texas Rangers have evolved into one of the most elite and well-respected law enforcement agencies in the nation.
Summer is here, head for the water. One of the best places to cool off, enjoy a relaxing float on the Guadalupe River, grab a bite to eat or spend the night is at Mountain Breeze, located on River Road in New Braunfels. For the past 31 years, Paul Rich has been providing the perfect place to be on river time. Paul proudly says, “We’re a complete river outfitter as well as a year round campground with tent sites, RV sites with water and electric and small rustic cabins.”
