Back from Austin and I wish I was still there.

I had three really great days but had to come back Houston.

I least the motel had AMC to watch.

I spent the morning and early afternoon on South Congress Ave. before coming home.

I always feel like I leave a little piece of me in Austin.

I had a great time Saturday afternoon on Town Lake.

A group of us rented a little electric powered boat and just crusied the lake.

Saturday night we went to Sixth Street.

Sunday morning was the big race, a big part of Congress Ave was closed off for the race.

We stayed until the last cheering on the last runners, they did run 26 miles.

Friday was spent at Ziker Park and Barton Creek.

I am tired.

But I would go back tomorrow if I could.

I left it in 1985 and haven't been back since.

However, I'm glad that I left and never went back (personal reasons)…
