Austin Adventure

Two words... LOVED IT!!!

This past weekend, a few friends went to Austin for an adventure. We all had a great time. The weather could not have been better (were were slackjawed in amazement). It was absolutely gorgeous.

Friday night began our fun with an outing to Threadgills (we were hoping for some live music). Dinner was great though.

Saturday moning, we drove to Boomer's Rocky Hill Ranch for some trail riding. The bluebonnets at the top were fantastic... and even though there was heavy rain Friday night, we made it up to the top on our own (we didn't need no stinkin' ride!) But because of the rain, there were probably a few more water hazards than usual... which only made for a more interesting trip.

We made it back to base around 2:30... just in time to clean up our bikes, get back to Austin, and head to Town Lake for some kayaking! After munching down on some good fajitas, we kayaked to the Congress Avenue bridge just in time for sunset (and the big bat release!!!)

Migas at Trudy's began our Sunday morning... only to be topped off by worship at Austin Stone Community Church.

Our leisurely drive back was dotted by beautiful vistas of bluebonnets... and a great burger in Bastrop.

All for now,
