Thursday--January 26, 2012 (Austin)

I guess the driver decided we had done enough sitting and eating.  The sun was shining and the weather was great so we headed south to visit Austin.  

First view of their Capitol Building

Home of one of the Founders

Don't make building like this anymore!

There was more interesting house on the same block!

Just wanted to know what they paid millions to stick on their dome?

Closer view....he MADE me walk blocks!

This is what we had headed downtown to see.  I guess the Governor's Mansion is being remodeled from the inside out.
They were putting up a new privacy fence.  It took up the entire block.

The was the first home of the founders.  Now it is called "The Honeymoon House".

Not to clear, but Austin seems to have a habit of putting food trailers on entire blocks.  People seemed to choose them for their lunch.
We went back to the trailer for our afternoon naps.  Then to Wal-Mart to get spaghetti sauce.  After I had made everything and had taken my first bite and made the comment.  "Yee Gads, this is terrible!"  Gary made the comment that he had noticed but was not going to make that comment.  We decided that the extra can needed to be tossed.  Back to the bottled version of sauce we normally use.  We drenched it is Catsup and  it was tolerable.  The pie was finished at noon.  Tomorrow he big decision day, move or stay?
