The Hope Outdoor Gallery is keeping it weird in Austin. There are lots of ever changing graffiti art. Of course, this is a popular Austin site for photographs and a great place to meet some new friends.

Castle Hill
I drove down to Castle Hill in Austin after work to wander around a bit and to get some photos. This structure was once the Texas Military Institute until it closed in 1880. Now it is home to a Real Estate firm, and still looking good. The views from on top of the hill are outstanding!
Deer
This deer was kind enough to allow me to take a few photos across the San Gabriel River on my sunset walk in Georgetown. Most awesome!
Amongst Clouds
I enjoyed this scene outside work this afternoon. I could have watched him sail around for hours.
Hello Kitty
I got a new Hello Kitty charm. I bet you are impressed with my sophistication.
Monkey
One of the bronze sculptures on display in downtown Georgetown is called Rock N Roll on a Skateboard . For some reason, I like this one.
Polkapocalypse
And for the best part of the day – Polkapocalypse with Brave Combo . Or, how to turn a quaint, unassuming park into a Sunday afternoon Dance Party…
Elizabet Ney Museum
Who builds a tiny castle in the middle of Hyde Park in Austin? Elizabet Ney moved here from Germany and built her studio in 1892. It is now the Elizabet Ney Museum and is a good place to visit if you like History, Sculpture, or Architecture.
Breakfast
The bee’s breakfast was much calmer than mine, but mine was tastier. I had the English Caramel tea at the Steeping Room (Lamar Location), along with some items from the brunch menu. If you come here, come early, because this place is busy and popular in the neighborhood. By the way Mr. Bee, I win!
Texas State Capitol – Interior
Here are some photos from inside the Capitol today. To give you an idea of my tastes at the Texas Book Festival , below is a list of the panels I attended throughout the day.
Wild Wild West
Drinks and a Movie
International Mystery
Tainted Love
Crime Noir
James Ellroy
There were tons of other discussions, music, food, books for sale, and anything else that belongs at a book festival. You should definitely check it out if you ever get the chance.
