  • Pride of Austin is back, y’all! This is a great hike, takes less than an hour, and is absolutely beautiful. My daughter was concerned that it might be unsafe, but I was packing and carrying my staff, so was unafraid. It was a pleasant surprise to see that there were no homeless folks living along the pathway. Austin has been cleaned up!
  • Beautiful Park and Lake with wonderful scenery and lots of green energy 💚Love it!💙
