MiniBreak: OACL (Outside Austin City Limits)

Tuesday & Wednesday, Nov 1 & 2

Spent a couple non-driving days exploring and enjoying the last summery days of central Texas. Kinda like an extended summer vacation. Nice!

Hanging around the house by the pool.

Joyce shows us the best place to see the waterfall fountain.
I find my own favorite place to enjoy the falls.

Then off to nearby Lake Travis for an afternoon of pontoon boating, swimming, and a dockside lunch.

And for dinner, meeting up with old friends from Portland, OR, Harvey-John and Joanna, who now live near Austin. Timing was good on this one, as they are about to move to Palm Springs.

Kelan, Harvey-John, Joanna, Denise, William, Joyce, Patrick

Dinner conversation ranged from college days (Portland U), to running times (Hood to Coast), to retirement plans.  Pretty much covers it.

For a grand finale, in between World Series innings, 12-year old William treated us to a mini concert including an original song of his own.

William plays and sings like a pro
