Charmed

The magic of a nighttime taco at the Trailer Park Eatery never gets old.

Cowboy

A slice of life from the overwhelmingly massive and sprawling East Austin Studio Tour. I'm pretty sure this cowboy is also the artist in his studio. I'll be back at it tomorrow. Impossible to see everything, you can only hope to get a good glimpse.

Eastside

I'm trying to figure out why this photograph speaks to me. I think it's the Fall light. The sky of course. The idea that the elements in and of themselves are nondescript and generally ratty, but somehow work as a whole. And the notion that barely a few yards to the west is I-35 and then downtown Austin, and just behind me is a hipster strip of cafes and creative small businesses. You'd never guess it.

Park

Fun with parking structures.

Happy Hour

La Condesa has one of the best. Lots of amazing bites and tastes and even steak and plantain frites. Half price cocktails and their margarita is the best I've had. Ever.

They also won the 2009 AIA Restaurant Design People's Choice Award. Grainy iPhone adds a certain charm.
