Last Days in Austin

Click for Photo Album
This photo album documents our last day in Austin and the return home to Canada. We had been vacationing in Austin from late February through to early March staying in the South Austin neighborhood of Bouldin not too far from South Congress.

On the last day we loaded up our car (I'm not sure how we got all the gear in but we did) and headed up to the Little Longhorn Saloon on Burnet in north Austin. We were curious about this bar and hadn't found the opportunity to visit. It's famous for Sunday afternoon "Chicken Shit Bingo" (use your imagination) and hot nights where the band plays to a crowded dance floor. We didn't catch either of those but have high hopes for next year.

What we did catch that night was a smoking show by Joe Ely for KDRP radio at Guero's. We just happened onto that event.

Pictures after that document our adventures in the car with our two cats. On the way back we drove up through Oklahoma to St Louis on the first day (a very long drive). And then home to St Marys on the second day.

We arrive home to discover that winter still has our home in it's grips.
