Don’t Look Back

Congress Avenue in Austin.

Capitol Christmas Tree

Here is the Christmas Tree at the Texas State Capitol in all its beauty. The current Austin nighttime temperature is a perfect 64 degrees (however, not so perfect for snowmen as it turns out).

Citizen Alert…

Dec13

Hello citizens of Austin. If you have lost your cuddly lion toy, it can now be found on the South side of Town Lake just before you step onto the new Boardwalk Trail, as some kind soul has placed it on a wall for safe keeping. As a secondary alert, the rains are over for now and sunny weather is predicted for the trail for today and tomorrow.

Happy Thanksgiving!

It turns out that a rainy Thanksgiving night is a good time to take a photo walk around downtown Austin.

100 Pizzitas

Nov20

Here is an interesting concept for a restaurant. Pizzas treated as tapas. 100 Pizzitas also has several full blown pizzas to choose from if you prefer not to sample some of the 100 different 6.5″ sized ones. My favorite tonight was number 59 – Provolone cheese, bacon, York ham, mushroom & cream. There is also a view of the Texas State Capitol building from the patio to enjoy.

Drone, Squirrel, Butterfly

Walking through the Capitol grounds on my way to see a film. Can you spot the drone, the squirrel, and the butterfly? 🙂

Thank you Jodi for the cool butterfly poem! I think Typewriter Rodeo is the best!

Texas Book Festival

Oct17

Here are some scenes from a most beautiful day at the Texas Book Festival. It is so cool to sit in on the discussion panels and then to roam the grounds of the Texas State Capitol.
