Our plan for this past weekend was to go camping near Krauss Springs, about 35 miles west of Austin. The rainy forecast forced us to change our plans. So, Saturday morning we headed to Austin with hotel reservations and no plans. We arrived at out hotel and immediately headed to our favorite Austin restaurant for dinner. Then..

We started off day 1 in Austin by strolling around the University of Texas. We ended up at the Lyndon B. Johnson Presidential Library.

Then...

The 99 Stairs at Covert Park, Mount Bonnell.

We ended day 1 in San Antonio. Our hotel was on the River Walk. We walked over to the Alamo just in time to get this picture. Now, I'm not a great photographer, and typically I wouldn't take a picture of a building that has had it's picture taken about 14 billion times. However, check out the rainbow over the Alamo. Too bad Jeff wasn't there to take a real photo of it. This was taken on the evening of day 1. The Alamo was closed so we made a point to return the following morning. Teach and I could have hung out there all day, but Deb and Rehn don't share our interest in history and...cool stuff like that.
