As if I wasn’t already crushing hard enough on Austin, my love for this city was compounded yesterday.  Matt picked me up and we headed to our friend Wade’s house to celebrate spring.

We couldn’t have driven more than three miles from my place before we started winding through hills that reminded me of the west coast.

I was giddy the second we arrived and started hiking our way down the limestone steps that led us through the greenest greens and then to the water.

We spent all day goofing around on paddle boards, listening to our favorite SXSW music discoveries, and laughing like little kids at summer camp.  The day, the scenery, the people – all perfect.  I have a feeling this is going to be one of the best years of my life!  Happy spring!
