Karen visits Austin

Karen was in Austin for a short 2-day visit, sharing time with Jane (and her family) and with us. We covered a lot of ground: visited and bought barbecue at both Smitty’s and Black’s in Lockhart, went to the Broken Spoke, took the kids swimming, had a nice view of Lake Travis from a table at the Iguana Grill, went on a tour of the Collings Guitar factory, played five-handed hearts, and visited two Texas State Parks: Pedernales Falls and McKinney Falls. Imagine what we could do with four days!

We took a few pictures:

Collings Guitars – the guide said this guitar, when finished, would cost about $10,000. And that it was underpriced; considering the amount of manual labor and the competitors’ prices for similar products, it should be priced at about $17,000.

At McKinney Falls on a hot Saturday afternoon, there were quite a few swimmers.
