Austin is a lovely town... imo it is by far the best place in TX... I've been in lots of places in the US at one time or another (military and traveling) and I can honestly say that Austin is my favorite... I hear parts of Colorado are incredibly nice to live in as well... I know I enjoyed my ski vacation there!
You ought to come down for South by SouthWest if you liked ACL you would probably love that festival too! It just finished last month for this year... and it just keeps getting bigger every year. We finally get a Formula 1 race this fall too!
Hell yes! Bring the cauldron!

If I could deal with the heat, I would love to live in Austin.Hell yes! Bring the cauldron!

The heat is bad... I can't deny that one... that and a horrible allergy season are the only two real downsides to living here. Last summer was the 2nd worst in recorded history (only worse one was in the 1950's). We had an entire month where it was up near 110 as the highs last summer and over 90 days with the high above 100.
Thank God that is not normal... but even the normal summer is really hot with about 45-60 days around 100. The spring fall and winter here are lovely though!

Nah. It wont be that simple. It been having idle issues, so Im guessing the ICV is acting up. Or something in the EGR. Regardless, I wont have to worry about it. Just gotta take it to the shop where the company will pay for the repair. Unless its too expensive, then they will just sell the van back to our fleet supplier. Who the heck orders Chevy Ventures for work vans anyways?! Stoopids.
And yes I do have a spare charger at work! Its been used many times already! I will say I was suprised at how tight my 14500's fit in it though. But it works great, and thats whats important!
I havent touched the gas cap in a few days. Im down to about a 1/4 tank. And it did the whole blinky blinky off thing. It flashed a few times, then went out and never came back on. No other dash lights, like the oil pressure light, came on.
Finally got my House loaded and vaping. Has more of a hint of vanilla, but nothing I cant live with. I do miss the warmer vape from the VV, but this will take me through the day in a satisfactory manner.
Wow, that's a long time. We get maybe a month of temps in the mid to high 90's. Sometimes we'll get over 100, but not very often. I'm spoiled with the weather here. Mid 60's is my ideal temperature.The heat is bad... I can't deny that one... that and a horrible allergy season are the only two real downsides to living here.

And I already have planned used for them once they are empty.
I could deal with that. Back in '95 we had a big family reunion in Florida on my Dad's side around Christmas. I remember one day we all went to Disney World, and it was raining like cats and dogs, and was somewhere in the 50's. I was wearing shorts and having a ball. All the locals were wearing sweaters and jackets.mid 60's is a little cool for me...my ideal would be
