Spring and fall, with the occasional balmy winter day make it all worth while. We woke up yesterday to one of these epic Austin days.
75 degrees, dry and breezy. Gentle sun with a few passing clouds and a brilliant blue, crystal clear sky.
Friends in town visiting from Houston. I start the day Mtn. Biking with Jeremy and Tim at Walnut Creek. Melissa's got Paisley in the jogging stroller and touring the townlake trail with Jen and Eliza
Exercise feels good. It also means its much easier to rationalize ordering the extraordinary Freddie's Place "Velveeta Burger." The cheese fries and onion rings round out the meal. Good thing there's a playscape to play on with the kids to help burn off the processed cheese.
Our friends have to bail (boo). So Miss, P and I go for another family walk around town lake to enjoy the sunset. We hear faint music in the distance. Huh? There appears to be a DJ spinning records with a small crowd of people dancing on top of the hill adjacent to the Lamar Bridge. Our curiosity draws us nearer to find a makeshift gathering of families, older couples and club kids dancing, hula hooping and flag twirling to (really good) house music. We have flashbacks of the random street parties we encountered in Prague...or did we suddenly get transported into a Diet Coke commercial...? We can't decide, but no matter. Paisley is dancing and practicing her hula hoop skills.
