Austin I
Austin, Texas. Part 1. Finally! After months and months (years?) of talking about my love for a city I've never been, I have made it to Austin, Texas. Not only is this my first time in Austin, it is my first time in Texas (outside of an airport). Howdy y'all! A few quick things I've observed: It is warm. I like that. The water smells funny. There is a lot of construction happening in the "downtown" area Lots of banks The city is lively and quiet and sprawling and condensed. Lots of contradictions, but they are very good contradictions.
