Elephant Room II

My favorite jazz bar was open for Christmas Night, so I stepped into the basement bar and enjoyed some great music.  The best part of the evening was when they had a tap dancer on stage to tap away during one of the jazz tunes.  The main performer, Alex Coke, was in town from Amsterdam and he played the flute, bass flute, and soprano sax.  A very fun night!

Elfvis II

Yes, I had to return to this most awesome Christmas display again this year.  There was Elfvis, the Grinch (doing the Nae Nae), the Kringles, Olaf (leading a “Let it Go” sing-along), a house full of synchronized lights, and the Snow Zone that blasted out fake snow for all the kids.  If you are in the Austin area, go check it out.  If not, then you can experience the YouTube channel as the next best thing to being there.

Voodoo Doughnut IV

Just another night (I really should break this habit) at Voodoo Doughnut on Sixth Street.  It’s just me, the American Flag, my Memphis Mafia doughnut, and the guy in the Ironman suit enjoying his doughnut.  If you are curious, my doughnut consists of “Fried dough with banana chunks and cinnamon covered in a glaze with chocolate frosting, peanut butter, peanuts and chocolate chips on top!”  It is not to be trifled with.
