It Was 47 Years Ago Today

 

We got married on this day 47 years ago. What a ride it has been.
And yes, this photo was taken in our house here in Austin, so it's legit. 

Happy Anniversary indeed!

We loved this duo of sorbet and tart at Jeffrey's the other night, when we were celebrating our 42nd anniversary. What a great meal.

Ten Years Later

Ten years ago today we started this blog with a picture of the Ballet Austin building which was under construction. That picture, looking east, showed the AMLI on Second building still under construction. Our building was just rising up looking the other direction. Looking west today from that spot, ten years later, you can see our building on the right, occupied now for about nine years. You can see a building under construction just to the left of that. This is the Independent Condominiums which will rise across the creek to be the tallest building in Austin. To the left of that, you can see the completed Seaholm Condominiums. The cranes across Nueces from the Ballet are for an office building called Third+Shoal. It's amazing what a difference ten years makes.

Thank you!

A nice ending to our 40th anniversary meal.

Anniversary Amenity

When we got to the Four Seasons the other day for our anniversary weekend, we were greeted with this wonderful amenity, including two of our wedding photos on white chocolate.

Happy 5th, Austin, Texas Daily Photo

Five years ago today we posted the first entry in this blog to become a part of the worldwide City Daily Photo family. I've randomly picked a few pictures (out of about 1800) and made a collage for today. There's a small nod to the three major contributors on the lower right side. I don't know how much longer this will continue but five years is a long time to do anything. And tomorrow we'll start on the next period in the life of Austin, Texas Daily Photo.
