Falling Softly

The scent of school and the hint of fall approaches.

Summer fleets amidst waves of heat.

Time for a sit on the sofa and a ponder on the season to come.

Day Trippin'

With the fabulous Arts Festival over,

I was in need of some R&R with my girlies.

Day Trippin' was the prescription and I've been doing some research.

First, a splash in the free side of Barton Springs, a Zilker park train ride and a warm sun basking.

Next, a meander along Lake Austin Blvd with a delicious stop at Mozarts for cinnamon buns.

Now, who knows where the day will take us.

In the meantime, you can start planning your next easy 10-hr vacation
