Austin

Okay. Austin is hot. And it’s not hot in that dry-heat way that Las Vegas is hot. It’s kind of humid here and it’s about 100 degrees. The restaurants and bars keep a mist going through their fans until the sun goes down, which makes the heat tolerable. But it doesn’t get much cooler when the sun goes down and the misters get shut off. As a result, the temperature goes up. And walking into the air conditioning feels good for about a minute. After that, you’re hot again. As for the city, it is a lot like Wilmington, Delaware. It’s seems to be about the same size and it has the same kind of skyline. The food is much better in Austin, though.

Now I have to go find Man Eegee. He’s around here somewhere.
