    Stop #5 The Austin TX mural tour has been so much fun. My friends are enjoying getting to know…read moreAustin, TX better. The "I Love You So Much" mural is one of Austin's most photographed and widely recognized pieces of street art. It is located on the side of Jo's Coffee at 1300 South Congress Avenue in the city's South Congress neighborhood. The mural features a simple message, "I love you so much", painted in red cursive letters on a light green wall. The mural has become a symbol of love we have for each other, connection to each other as well as the connection to the city, and Austin's love for all. The mural was created in 2010 by Amy Cook, a local Austin musician. According to the word on the streets, Cook spray painted the message as a heartfelt expression of love for her partner, Liz Lambert, who is affiliated with Jo's Coffee. Now this sign serves a love note to all that visit Austin.

    It's weird I have never reviewed this mural. Going to this Jo's location is one of my favorite…read morethings to do. It is, in fact, my favorite Jo's location. The mural is just perfection. Simple, elegant, profound, and fun. I can't even begin to count how many times I have been to this mural in the last decade or so. This along with other murals on South Congress and in Austin is where I take visitors from other cities. Well, I take them to this one only if I Love Them So Much!

    Stevie Ray and I grew up in and around Oak Cliff Texas. I took a photo of this Memorial years ago…read more Austin was still a small laid back city and the tallest building wasn't very tall. You couldn't see any of this new construction behind Stevie. I wonder what he would think of the Austin he loved so much today. I know what he'd say," cool". Laid back attitude prevailed with him. It seems surreal when I see this statue and get caught up in memories of the last time I saw him before he dropped out of High School. Kimball highschool,first week of class, 11 th grade history. Stevie had dropped out before, gone to Austin for awhile but,for some reason was inclined to go back to school. That's really surprising because he was making headway in music. I guess we'll never know why he came back . But it wasn't for long and I think we all agree,he made the right choice . What I do know, is that I was there his last day,hour...minute of school. This is exactly how it went down as I sat in the row of desk to his right and one seat up. The bell rang just as SRV strolled into class and took the seat behind and left of me. I looked back and nodded,he flashed that patented smirk. About then the teacher started making a few announcements and added Mr Vaughan,please take your hat off. Yes,he was wearing his trademark black hat even into class. You just knew he was of a different place and time. He had gained a certain aura by this time. He just sat there gazing down. Again the teacher," Mr Vaughan,will you please remove your hat as they aren't allowed in class"! Still nothing. At this point I was getting nervous for him. Finally from the front of class," Mr. Vaughan,either remove your hat or go to the office". I guess he liked the choice because he stood up and strolled out of the history classroom,out of the school and into the history books. RIP Stevie Ray

    It's weird that no one has ever reviewed this iconic sculpture (myself included)…read more This beautiful piece of artwork is a fitting tribute to the incredible talent that Stevie Ray was. Located along Lady Bird Lake (Auditorium) right at the water and walking/bike path (Ann & Roy Butler trail). It makes a long trail walk better when coming up on a familiar face, no matter how many times we've passed it. My most recent visit was to take my dog for his first visit. What a great way to spend an early #sundayfunday A great area to take out-of-town visitors too.

    I do have to say it does have some amazing views. I could prob stay up there all day. I don't know…read moreif we lucked out in the day or what but we were the only ones there. There are 2, if not more routes to get to the view point but the trail to the right is definitely the easiest. If you're in the area it is definitely worth stopping for a photo op. There was signage down by the road about parking but wasn't really sure where it was talking about no parking since there wasn't anywhere else, unless it just meant don't block the path. It is nice that they have food and drinks at the base when get back, so if it's hot and you're thirsty it's perfect..

    The Pennybacker Bridge, also known as 360 Bridge, is one of Austin's most notable landmarks and a…read morerequired stop for anyone visiting or living in Austin, TX. The bridge is located at Lake Austin along Loop 360 (the Capital of Texas Highway), the bridge combines a unique structure with sweeping Hill Country views. It is simple in structure yet spectacular when combined with the Lake Austin water views, which never gets old. Today we simply wanted to be one with nature. What a fanatstic starting point! No matter what you call the bridge, one thing that is certain is that you will likely admire the architecture of the rust-colored steel arch design. That weathered looks allows the bridge to easily blend in with the rolling hills and Lake Austin. It is an equally visually appealing structure whether you are driving across it or admiring it from afar. Parking is very limited along Capitol of Texas highway. What spectacular way to start your morning or end your evening!
