A community is more than just a group of people living in a particular area. A community is a group of people we lean on when times are tough; our friends, family, and neighbors who are there for us when we need love, support and encouragement. We recently sent a request to CaringBridge users asking them to share the one word they would use to describe their community. Some of the most common responses were: Loved; Connected
The Alamo: 13 Days of Glory. February 23, 1836, began the siege of the Alamo, a 13-day moment in history that turned a ruined Spanish mission in the heart of downtown San Antonio, Texas, into a shrine known and revered the world over.
For over 300 years, the Alamo has been a crossroads for history. From its early days as a Spanish mission and site of the 1836 battle that enshrined it in the hearts of Texans, to its role in the commercial development of an American city, the Alamo is a place like no other. More than 2.5 million visitors come to the Alamo every year.
