Austin in July - Junkin' through all the Small Towns

When Mr. P told me he had business to attend to in Texas I jumped at the chance and said, "Take me to Austin!".  So..we drove, preferring 2-lane highways between Forth Worth and Austin.  We happened upon Stephensville, Hico, Granbury to name a few.  Some shops.  Notice the killer Italian tole chandelier I scored at one such place - keeping this one.  I had so much fun but so many of these darling town squares have shops open only on the weekend.  So we are going back the same direction on Saturday. 

While in Austin, we have been all over town.  We had dinner the first night in town at Perla on Congress, then went across the street to The Continental for late night music. 

For the evening, we had a party to attend outside of Austin, which is the reason we came here. 

Next on the agenda is the LBJ Ranch, Fredericksburg, then more junking on the way home tomorrow.  As they say, everything is bigger in Texas, and so is the fun!
