The day it all started was March 6, 1836. On that fateful day, Davy Crockett woke up, rose from his bunk on the main floor of the Alamo, and walked up to the observation post along the west wall of the fort. William B. Travis and Jim Bowie were already there, looking out over the top of the wall. These three great men gazed at the hordes of Mexicans (General Santa Anna's army) moving towards the Alamo. With a puzzled look on his face, Crockett turned to Bowie and said, "Jim, are we, by any chance, having any landscaping done today?"
