Wikipedia: Waxahachie, Texas
Waxahachie (pronounced /ˌwɒksəˈhætʃi/) is a city in Ellis County, Texas, United States, and a southern suburb of Dallas. The population was 29,621 at the 2010 census. It is the county seat of Ellis County.

Waxahachie was the birthplace of Tom Blasingame, considered the oldest cowboy in the history of the American West, R&B singer Tevin Campbell, Bill Ham (manager for ZZ Top), and Byron Nelson, a professional golf legend. It was said that Edward (Chief Wahoo) McDaniel was from Waxahachie, but he was born in Bernice, Oklahoma.
 
In 1988 the area around Waxahachie was chosen as the site for the Superconducting Super Collider, which was to be the world’s largest and most energetic particle accelerator, with a planned ring circumference of 87.1 kilometers (54.1 mi). Seventeen shafts were sunk and 23.5 km (14.6 mi) of tunnel were bored before the project was cancelled by Congress in 1993.
 
The town is also the namesake of the former United States Naval ship USS Waxahachie (YTB-814).

What do you get when 4 Waxahachians take London by storm?
Late this summer/early fall, we had Waxahachie friends come for a stay in the London pad…actually, they house-sat for us while we were in Croatia but we got a really good visit in while they were here.
