Awesome Times in Austin

 Last weekend Jeannie and Erin went to Austin for a friend's wedding.  They had both never been to Austin and this was the first time back in Texas since the family road trip of '99.
We enjoyed all the sights and sounds of Austin.  It is known as the live music capitol of the world.  They also have delicious BBQ and Tex Mex food - we sampled it all, of course!
We saw the capitol building and it's lovely grounds.  It's made completely of granite and looks similar to the California state capitol building.
Austin also has a Colorado River that runs through it but it is different than the one that is in Colorado and goes to California.
And here we are with the beautiful bride, our friend Rachel.  We can't wait to go back to Austin to enjoy more Southern hospitality.
