Home

We flew in to see Billy Strings play some old school blue grass at Austin City Limits. There was almost enough time to relax before dinner at the Peacock (which is very good indeed). The Proper is a nice hotel, and likely the best one in Austin, but it’s not quite as nice as they seem to think it is. Oh those Texans.

We were assigned a king balcony room 714 overlooking the unused pool. The day we arrived in Texas it was 37 degrees (which in Texas is way below freezing).

Not one speck of plastic in the shower. The bathroom is a little too small.

View of the pool on a cold winter day. It was even too cold to use the balcony.

And then it was time for Billy Strings to pick a few. (Lots of pictures and videos from the show here.)

Late night at Goldies. So secret the front desk even thinks it’s closed.

While in Austin we had an excellent breakfast at the well and then walked to Imogene + Willie and maufrais.

And then, it was time to fly home.

Four showerheads and a smaller hat for the proper. It’s awful hard to get five.
