SXSW – Austin Fun

I sure had a lot of fun at SXSW (South by South West) in Austin. Arriving on Saint Paddy’s day meant beer and party people everywhere. What a great town, great music, yummy beer and good people. Looking froward to returning again.

Austin = Beer Time

Mexican Fun Finds

I headed down to Mexico over the weekend and I could not resist taking some snaps of the fun items for sale in the marketplace. I went with Rosie (my mom) and Pam (my sister) – we had a great time, ate well and laughed a little too much. Gal time is fun! We also had a chance to stop off in Yuma to eat at my favorite restaurant La Casa Gutierrez.

Cali Finds

Just a smattering of finds from the most recent California trip to share – some creepy, some pretty and some that made me long for fall. It was chilly there and made we want to pull out sweaters and boots. Then I returned home to 100 degrees. Damn Phoenix in September!
