Winner, winner, chicken dinner!

 This chicken dish at a restaurant near us is becoming one of my favorites. Juicy chicken, panzanella, and corn.

Monolith? No, just more apartments

The stats say that 150 people move here every day. They need places to live, so here are some more apartments going up along the lake.

Rain shower

Jackie captured this rain shower in the on the horizon to the south and west from her downtown apartment.

Wafel? Waffle? However you spell it--

I guess I need to find out what the difference is between "Waffles" and Wafels."

Personal melons? Sure, why not?

Eat a watermelon in one sitting? Why not? With some football on the TV, that works!

Busy bees in Round Rock

If you want a gallon jug of honey, hey no problem!

A mere $15,000? I''ll take two!

Austin has officially arrived on the national scene. Our local Saks outlet has a Birkin bag on display. It has generated plenty of buzz, for sure.

Looking Up

This giant silver man sculpture at Laguna Gloria is still dwarfed by a large palm tree.

Protect Ya Neck

Not sure I understand this mural on Guadalupe. But it's striking.

New Mural

This new mural along Walter Seaholm is very striking and the woman in black with the white dog fits right in.

Green Porthole

Everything is green around Lady Bird Lake. This lady in the kayak was paddling and I caught a glimpse of her through the trees.

Another Door!

Blue Door

Lots of homes in Old West Austin and Clarksville accent their curb appeal with a colorful front door.

Park Rules

This West Austin park has some rules! The good news about the pets on leash is that there is a off-leash park about a hundred feet away!

Good Advice for Austin

This mural is good advice for here where summer lingers well into what ought to be fall.

It's A Fright

The Turquoise Door on South Congress provides a little fright in the window.

Overseeing West SIxth

These two giants were recently for sale at a shop on West Sixth.

Uncommon WIndow

The window displays at Uncommon Objects never disappoint.

Waiting For My Master

This cutie was waiting outside a shop on West Second the other day.

After the rain

A lot of brush got washed downstream in Johnson Creek after the last rain.

Freddie Kruger update

Freddie has some feathered friends now as he takes his ease on the porch.

A great pair

A famous pair of singers are immortalized in West Austin.

Wine mural

Just saw this sweet new mural at a local wine store on West Sixth.

Destinations

Love these signs in a Clarksville front yard.

Beef and ribs

One of our favorite restaurants has closed for a move. We went in on one of the last days before they shuttered the doors and I had this delectable dish.

Now this is a fountain!

I saw this fancy fountain on West Sixth the other day. It would be quite an addition to a back yard!

Our yearly shot

Here we are at Cape Meares, Oregon, enjoying the beach. We always get someone to take a photo of us in this setting.

The way we were

Here are your site mods at a gala in 1987. We are bidding on a silent auction item.

Sweet sunset

The clouds over the skyline were spectacular on a recent evening.

Our new library

All kinds of new structures in our neighborhood. A pretty new bridge which will take West Second Street across Shoal Creek and that building with the brown exterior is the new central library which will open in a matter of months. It will be a state-of-the-art marvel. It is the first of the month and so it's theme day at City Daily Photo. The theme is 'Library' and you can see what others offer from around the world here.
