Downtown Shopping

The naysayers to our move downtown always act like we will starve for the lack of a grocery store "within walking distance." We always mention the Royal Blue, a little neighborhood place on Third. Most of them don't know about it. Of course, we aren't giving up our cars just yet either and there are two grocery stores along the ten minute drive to our club on Lake Austin. (Although for just exercise we won't need to go there...there's a gym in our building.)

So...I'm just saying. We don't know how our downtown 'lifestyle' will play out but we can always walk to the Royal Blue or, for that matter, Whole Foods. (I call Austin's downtown Whole Foods the Whole Foods Planet because it is the headquarters of that chain.)
