Austin

I spent a few days in Austin Texas for a work photo shoot and I fell in love. If I ever have to move away from Seattle, Austin might be next on my list. The people were genuine and kind, their running trails were great, the live music was everywhere, and the food....OMG. I wanted to bathe in the sweet BBQ goodness and my introduction to cake balls has made me a new woman.

I also love how much Texas pride everyone has. I don't know where it really comes from, but man are they loud and proud.

I call this photo series, "You know you're in Texas when..."

You have real cow hide furniture in your hotel room

There is an entire bar dedicated to Johnny Cash

You can buy cake balls from a street vendor

The bathrooms in downtown office buildings have swinging doors

Your cheese block is in the shape of Texas

seriously. i never thought twice about the swinging doors until now. i thought those were everywhere, but i suppose my lack in spotting them outside of texas would tell me otherwise...
