Views of the Neighborhood – Drought and Preview

Today, we will visit Lake Travis in Lakeway to assess the effects of the drought and the 22 days straight of above 100-degree F (37.7 C) temperatures. Also, there will be a new scavenger hunt next week, but I think previewing it while we are at the lake would be fun. We are being catered […]

Top Ten Things Not to do If You Don’t Normally Shop for Whatever You are Buying.

This list was originally posted on October 5th, 2015. I think it still is useful.   This list was inspired by filling in on a few occasions when I needed to venture into places I’ve never been.
