8 Fun Ways to Get Fit in Austin During 2016

Posted on January 4, 2016 by Bill Tucker

Fair warning: I am not a fitness guru. Between writing for three blogs, weekly visits to Alamo Drafthouse and an unhealthy obsession with “Fallout 4,” my life is a relatively sedentary one. My weekly exercise consists of long walks around town that inevitably end up at a craft beer bar. And I can’t stand gyms. […]

24 Hours in South Austin

24 Hours in South Austin

If you only had 24 hours in Austin, what would you do? This is a loaded question for such a fabulous town. And the answer depends on so many things, like what part of town you’re in, what you like, how old you are and your budget. When creating this “ultimate itinerary,” I decided to use all 24 hours. Because…why not? […]

Best Bars Watching Out of Town Sports Austin

For us transplants, it can be tough to watch our favorite sports teams around here. With all these hipsters running around, it’s tough to find a good sports bar in general. Never mind finding one that favors your out-of-town teams. Take it from a guy who had to watch the Bruins lose game six of the […]

5 Delightful Pumpkin Patches to Explore in Austin

Posted on October 27, 2015 by Guest Blogger

Guest article by Angela Bowers It’s that time of year again—boots, pumpkin spice-everything, shivering 80-degree temperatures and leaves changing color. Well, I guess it’s just yellow leaves mixed with dead ones (we’re still in Texas, y’all). But the best part of fall, in my opinion: pumpkin patches. Plenty of places in Austin offer these colorful […]
