  1. Notes: 1) Austinites LOVE those bats. They keep the 'skeeters and other buglies under control. 2) Hamilton Pool (or parts thereof) is temporarily closed due to rock falls caused by The Big Freeze. 3) The Texas Capitol Gift Shop is in the underground extension. You can get canned armadillo (spoiler alert: the can contains a little plushie toy) and other oddities there. Worth a browse. 4) When visiting Dallas, get a DART day pass. The light rail serves a lot of attractions, shopping, and dining. Be sure to take a ride on the scenic McKinney Ave vintage trolley line. Los Colinas Urban Center is also kind of cool. They have a free peoplemover that you can board at the DART station, ride to Bell Tower, and grab lunch by the canal. 5) The Schlitterbahn defines its own name as "slippery road" and the death you mentioned was an employee at the South Padre park. AFAIK, nobody's ever died at the original New Braunfels park, which is the best of all the Schlitterbahns and has been voted the best waterpark in the world by several polls. New Braunfels also has a great city park just across the Comal river and you can go tubing at a number of locations on the Guadalupe (the best is "the Loop" because you can take a reasonably short walk back to the entry point and loop around again as many times as you can stand). 6)Fans of HGTV will want to check out The Silos in Waco. Funky shops with weird pricy home goods, restaurants, kiosks, and people-watching abound. Worth a stroll. 7) Texas welcomes all visitors warmly but please remember to go back home after you visit! ;-)

  2. I've seen it twice. Did the cowboy dinner once. Makes for a fun date night. The first time I went, I almost soiled my drawers when the lightning hit the tree!

  3. The Silos are a little overrated and the goods are pricy, but it's a pleasant stroll. Magnolia Table is a couple miles from there and the food is delicious!

  4.  @Grammie-hk5vb  You've been brainwashed by Halloween propaganda! 🤣There's nothing spooky about flying mammals. They're here for BUGS, not for you.
