Family, Friends & Fame in Austin
Wow.. what a whirlwind of a visit to Austin. When booking more than a week in a single location, it always feels like we’ll have all the time in the world to fit in work, social time and exploring. Then it goes by so quickly. There were several reasons for this visit to Austin that […]
Bluebonnets… Everywhere!
One of my favorite places to be in the springtime is the hill country of Texas. Thanks to the efforts of Lady Bird Johnson, wildflowers paint the roadsides.
