So, for those who observe holidays, how did you spend your 4th of July and the surrounding weekend times?!

Aenne flew down from Portland and we drove to Austin for five days of forgetting the outside world exists. We utilized AirBnB to secure a small apartment for four nights, did a small amount of touristy things, and mostly just went to some of my favorite places in the capital that I wanted to share with her. Adorable vintage coffee shops, swimming, Zilker botanical gardens, Salt Lick, Taquiéra Taco More, and fireworks on the roof of a ten-story parking structure.

There may have also been large amounts of wine and whiskey along the way. It got a little fuzzy in the middle.
