Up at 8:00 am. Plans are to visit the Texas State Capitol in Austin. We’ll see how the day progresses. It’s 41 right now with a projected high in Austin of 71. Gotta love it. First stop this morning was for propane, $2.08 gal. pretty cheap compared to what we have been paying. Arrived in Austin at 1:30 pm. High today was 76.
We are camping at the Austin Lone Star RV Resort 6 miles south of Austin on I-35. We setup the motorhome and hot footed it to the capitol just in time to catch the last tour of the day.
Pretty impressive capital bldg. Lots of history, ie; the many battles fought in Texas, Sam Houston, Austin, Travis, Bowie and Crockett, just to name a few. 
Looked for and found pictures and a bronze bust of James E. “Pete” Laney (speaker of the House 1993 – 2003). We believe he is some relation of Wandas. Gotta look into that. Lotsa pictures.Supper was next on the agenda (seems like that’s about all we do). We drove waaaaay south of Austin (actually about 6 miles or so) and found a “Texas Roadhouse”. Too noisey for me but the food was good.
That’s about it for this day. Relaxin’ and watchin’ the Cotton Bowl. (Gotta say this quietly cuz we’re in Texas, but, “GO LSU”. Have a good night y’all.
sounds like all is going great...Oh sooo cold here, so enjoy the warmth....Pat
