Coffee House Art

May4

I am hanging out at Cianfrani Coffee Company in Georgetown today and thinking about going for a long sunset walk. This place always has some cool art on the walls. Sipping iced coffee, killing time on my iPad, and enjoying some local art. Yay!

Pecan Street Festival II

May3

It is the springtime version of the Pecan Street Festival! Booths, food, drinks, people, pets, art, live music and more! What an awesome day in Downtown Austin!

Shakespeare in the Park

May2

Austin Shakespeare presented “The Taming of the Shrew” at the Zilker Hillside Theater. The setting for the play was the city of Austin in the 1890’s and the surrounding countryside. So, of course, everyone had to wear boots and hats. It was a fun version of Shakespeare, and the play goes on through the month of May if you like outdoor theater, and find yourself in Austin.

Barton Springs Pool

May1

I took a short walk around Barton Springs Pool this evening before sunset and it was warm enough that I wished I had brought my swimsuit. Oh well, next time… Isn’t this a beautiful swimming hole?

Round Rock Express Game

Apr30

Today’s fun was found watching the Round Rock Express play the Nashville Sounds at Dell Diamond. This ballpark is a unique one with its own swimming pool and hot tub in the outfield just behind the grassy seating area. The weather and the sunset were just perfect!

Pflugerville Pfarmers Market

Apr28

It was a nice day for photos at the Pflugerville Pfarmers Market. The Green Red Barn in Pflugerville is home to the Market. This event happens on Tuesdays from 3:00 to 7:00 pm during certain months of the year. Check out the link if you find yourself in need of fresh vegetables or groovy photos.

Home

If you are feeling a little bit sick, and you think you might be catching a cold, then it is a good idea to go see a kids movie (or to rent a movie, or to watch one on television) to lift your spirits. When the movie is over, it is not necessarily a good idea to walk to the very front and take a photo while facing the projector. If you attempt this, then please bring sunglasses. 🙂

Art City Austin

Apr26

Another day, another fun festival in Austin. Today it was Art City Austin where they blocked off a portion of Cesar Chavez Street for artist booths, food trucks, and live music. The best artist in my opinion was international photographer Greg Davis. The best food truck was anyone who sold cool, refreshing liquids on this hot day in the street. The best and most energetic band was Holiday Mountain. Check out the links if you want to learn more.

Eeyore’s Birthday

Apr25

Here are 15 photos from Eeyore’s Birthday today in Pease Park. There is no good way to describe this Austin tradition (for 52 years now), so the pictures should give you an idea of all the fun that happens.
