Re: Grand Texas Water Park
.
From the puff piece on ABC13’s site, it says that it will reflect Texas’ “Spanish, Mexican, and German” influences as part of a modern-day Six Flags Over Texas theme. The other 3 flags not mentioned were French, Confederacy, and USA but the Confederate contingent will be represented I’m sure by decaled trucks in the lot and we’re all Americans now.
.
So, the French influence on Texas is left out. Mon Dieu!
There is something like 20,000 people that live in New Caney. Who exactly are they building the dream park for, this smells like a way to fleece the investors that havent already gotten on high speed rail.
Sick and tired of “Texas” view of history, which is generally over blown bluster. No thanks, have no plans to attend.
Love all the stereotypes of Texans. Keep up the good work!
what the hell is “new caney”? And why would someone live there?
