A general history of the development of Sugar Land to the present day.
This is the saddest story. 😢😢
Native americans were probably pretty suprised that the spanish thought the land was theirs to grant to someone else.
Sugar Land is beautiful and a great place to live.
If I ever won a big prize in the lottery or Publishers Clearing House,I would like to start a boarding school for grades 5-12 and run byy church denomination.Suger Land would be a site I'd look into for its location.
I started buying this sugar from Costco.... it is not really tan/golden like the other Pure Cane Sugar I normally buy.... I hope it's really Pure Cane Sugar b/c it's a 50lb bag I purchased. I haven't eaten plain white sugar in 20 years. I will wait and see if I have any negative reactions like white sugar use to give me. I hope not b/c I really like the video.... seems honest...!!!
Thanks!! Bob was a great man and we were close to all of his family. And the clip of photos and information on the History of Sugar Land and Imperial was great!
