Austin in the rear view mirror

Blog post for March 27, 2015

A few weeks ago Howard asked about pictures of lawyers on billboards. We have seen a lot of them in the south, beginning with Alexander in Alabama and the Panhandle of Florida, and Austin seemed to really go all out. Here are a few...







This one is my favorite.

Austin was very welcoming and the people extremely helpful and interesting, except for the drivers. Maybe because the highway system around and through Austin is inadequate, under construction and the most confusing we have ever seen, but the drivers seem to epitomize the Texas motto - Don't mess with Texas. Drivers will not yield an inch, are aggressive (of course), and pushy. 

But we liked Austin and, as usual, we are sad to leave because it seems there are a lot more things to see and do. Here are a few closing shots -

Patsy Cline's restaurant and bar - Austin: live music capitol the world (even though Patsy Cline is deceased).

We have seen this bird apartment building in several places around Austin. I don't know what birds it attracts.

Finally, the bluebonnets are beginning to bloom and we see them along the highways and the interchanges. The Texas state flower.
