We got a little bit of rain today in San Marcos, and it left behind some cool temperatures and a most beautiful rainbow.

SXSW Rain
Yes, it can rain at South by Southwest. This puts a damper on the fun in the streets and the outdoor parties.
Explore UT
The Explore UT event was rain or shine. Today we received a steady dose of rain. I saw soccer playing robots, a projection dance piece, a few other events, and rain. Yes, mostly rain.
Skyspace
As per the website, “The Skyspace is a naked-eye observatory in the heart of the main campus, where visitors view the sky through an opening in the ceiling called an oculus.” It can be found on the third floor rooftop garden of the Student Activity Center on the University of Texas campus. On rainy days, you get nice images of gray, black, and white.
February Wildflowers
This is an awesome time in Central Texas. The wildflowers are beginning to pop up. This groovy patch can be found at Park Hills Baptist Church, and there is also a nice view of downtown Austin from this site. Have fun if you go, and beware of the traffic on the nearby road. 🙂
Cotton Belt Trail
I think this is why I like hiking so much. In the span of a few hours on the Cotton Belt Trail, I went from feeling good in the cool cloudy weather, to miserable and soaking wet in a downpour, to a state of awe at seeing a magnificent rainbow at the end of the trail.
Cooper’s in the Rain
My destination was Cooper’s Bar-B-Que, but along the way, I stopped to admire the sights in Downtown Austin. The Contemporary has an interesting rooftop display of Art. There was construction going on. And I made it to Cooper’s just before the heavy rains came down.
