Playing House

Bill found us a great place to stay while in Austin on HomeAway. This one bedroom cottage was the perfect base for our two weeks living the Texas vida loca.

The house is in the Delwood II neighborhood, at the intersection of 35 and Airport Blvd, not far from Fiesta Mart. A rooster named Jim lives across the street, and peacocks roam the neighborhood.

I loved how the sun streamed in the windows, and that we had grass and flowers right out the front door. We also benefited from easy access to some of the great eating in South and SE Austin. The commute to Bill's office in North Austin was only 20 or 25 minutes. If the cottage had a washer and dryer it would have been perfect, but as it was it gave me a great excuse to hang out with various friends (and keep them from working!) while I borrowed their major appliances.

We miss you, Jim.
