It's almost here, it's in the air, the mosquitos are buzzing and the streets are filled with the smells of backyard BBQ grills.  SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!  School is almost out and travel plans need to be made!  Are you ready?  Here are a few tips and pointers to get ya started sweets: Last summer I did a Road Trip Blog  that received TONS of hits.  I guess you guys liked it!  Click on Road Trip to review the goods again!   Austin is Awesome!  Great town for everything!!  You have UT (yes, I put that first), The Texas Capitol, Barton Springs, Barton Creek, Zilker Park (this park is HUGE and just amazing!  So much to do!) Lake Travis, Chuy's Hula Hut, McKinney Falls!  Last but not least, SoCo!! I mean...are you kidding me?  If it were not for my hubs company we would live in Austin in 2 shakes of a lambs tail!   San Antonio is Spectacular!  The Riverwalk, Seaworld, Fiesta Texas, The Hyatt Hill Country (best place to stay with kids, hands down), Historic Market Square, and my favorite... Southtown!  All within arms reach!   New Braunfels is Nutty!  Been going here since I was a kid, even in my college days (not to sober and not too smart to travel the river in such a condition).  The river is incredible.  Great for kids of all ages, young and old.  You have the best Waterpark in the U.S. at your feet, Schlitterbahn, the Natural Bridge Caverns,  Canyon Lake, and my favorite little town Gruene!  Gruene Market Days is June 21-22, and it is spectacular!  It doesn't get any better.   Is there a small town or city in Texas that you like to travel to during Summer with your family?  Would love to know where ya go!  Oh, and why did I mention 'Tequila' in my header?  Cause you may need some after all this travel with your children.  So get a sitter, and stop by any Iron Cactus location at any of the 3 cities I listed above and choose from their selection of over 80 tequilas for a smashing cocktail!   Don't drink and drive.  Happy trails!
