I’ve really missed Austin!

I’ve now been in Austin for three days, and every one has been fantastic. The first night I got here, a bunch of my old friends met me at a new bar, and then we went out country dancing. I can’t even tell you when we got home..I was just very glad I didn’t have to work the next day like all of those poor people!
Last night I ended up chatting with a buddy from an old company where I worked. He’d finished his year around the world about six months ago, so we wanted to swap traveling stories. We chatted for a bit, then headed downtown to see Zigenfest…Roger Crager was playing on the street, so we headed up to Iron Cactus to watch from their balcony. After he finished around midnight, Ted and I headed to a couple of bars to listen to some blues.
My craving for Chile Reanos was also satisfied today with lunch at Chuys. Tonight is Halloween, so there are bunch of us going out. I’m going as a perverted priest again…..Normally I prefer to have a different costume this year, but on short notice it was easy to throw together. I’ve got a disposable camera, and I’ll be taking plenty of pictures. If last nights preshow is any indication, this should be a great evening!
