As the sun set on downtown Round Rock, it was time to meet up at the Main Street Plaza for the Daytripper Round Rock Premier Party. Chet Garner, AKA “The Daytripper“, was meeting and greeting his fans, running around organizing last minute things, raffling off free goodies, making sure everyone was fed, taking photos with people, and smiling and having fun the whole time. When it was almost dark, he thanked the guitar player and introduced his show about Round Rock. We all watched the half hour episode with interest for our home town places and its history. If you find yourself sitting around looking for something to do, check out his website for some travel ideas in Texas. If you want to take the easy way, look for his popular bus trips and get some Texas exploring done with Chet as your most capable host.

Pflugerville Pfarmers Market
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.
Kawaii Shaved Ice
Close to the water tower in Downtown Round Rock, there exists the most wonderful place for an icy treat when the weather begins to get warm again. The high today was 81 degrees Fahrenheit, so an afternoon trip to Kawaii Shaved Ice was the perfect plan. Some coworkers and I enjoyed the oasis-like setting for a short team building exercise. I ordered my standby shaved ice flavor – grape. We then enjoyed the shady tables, shooed off a few small bees who wanted in on the grape action but were too shy to pose for a photo, and had some nice conversations. I will have to remember to visit again soon and maybe experiment with a new flavor next time…
