Yes, today we are going to the Lakeway Activity Center, where an art show is in progress. These are local artists and in addition to the show at the Activity Center, several artists have opened their studios for visits. We won’t be going to those since I don’t think the artists will be prepared for a visit from our group. We are being catered by Patrizi’s Food truck in Austin. Our entertainment is ZZ Top.
Cacio e Pepe – grana Padano cheese, fresh cracked black pepper, and olive oil
Karah’s Diavolo – lemon, olive oil, rosemary, egg yolks, red chili, grana Padano chees
Patrizi’s House Salad – mixed greens with family recipe creamy Italian dressing, giardiniera, pickled onions, and grana Padano
Here’s a view of some pottery and a succulent display.
This table gives information and ocations of the Artist Studio tour.
A long view of some art.
The Activity Center has many things going on, including dance bands and concerts. Here is a display showing some of them.
Some interesting photos.
A nod to the Avant-Garde.
A portrait selection.
Impressionistic work.
Mostly pastels.
Photographic art.
A little of everything.
Farm scenes.
Pottery and stuff.
A revisit to the succulent table to check out the humorous labels.
Of course, there are food trucks to satisfy the need for a snack while browsing the art.
That’s it. I hope you have a great week. Relax, have some food and enjoy ZZ Top
Fiction Favorites 
I love these local art shows. My son had the opportunity to meet his heroes from ZZ Top as his band was one of the opening acts before they performed. He was delighted.

Here’s Billy and Rodney Crowell performing one you could use as a sound track for the next car show in the neighborhood. Back in the day, the ZZ guys used to hang out at a hamburger joint/dive down at the bay. Nice, nice people.
