Andres: La Retama Library

I loved Andres website and topic. It was extremely well organized and it was something you just had to read. Its amazing how things can live on for years and years. I had never heard of this library, but after reading this it makes me want to visit and see it for myself. 

Kevin: Ben Garza

Kevin Chandlers topic and website was so interesting, and well organized, it really caught my attention. I had honestly never heard of Ben Garza but now after reading that website I do. It makes me think that it is sad we do not know enough of the people in Corpus Christi that tried to make a difference. To see all their accomplishments should help us make better decisions today.

Reflection On My Corpus Christi History Project

My Corpus Christi History Project research was on the Corpus Christi Cathedral. I really enjoyed doing this project because I did not know I could learn so much about the Cathedral and of Corpus Christi. It's amazing how much I found out with the short amount of time we were given to finish the project, I could just imagine if we had had more time. The best part of this project was reading about how much people donated and helped. People donated land! That is something nobody today would do. I believe that is the way it should be, we should guve without asking for anything in return. This relates to me because one day in the future I want to be able to help with nothing given to me in return. I have faith that one day I will be able to do that.
