We are thrilled to be settled into our new home in a new city, yet don’t really know much about this area.  So we have decided to ask our friends for suggestions as to the “top 10” things we MUST do in and around the Austin area.  And thus what started as a fun summer project for the family grew steadily into a list of 25+ things to do around central Texas.  We are excited to begin this journey and you will hear about it along the way.  If you are from the area (or not) and you have suggestions to add to our list, please let me know.  For those of you nowhere close to Austin, well you can learn all about it right along with us!

 

What’s so great about Austin?
