SXSW 6th Street Party Time, Austin Texas

It’s been a great week in Austin Texas. The party started with friends and family coming to town for my son Matthew’s wedding. The wedding was spectacular! It was a military wedding in a great outdoor setting. The weather was perfect, the flowers were fabulous, and my new daughter-in-law was radiantly beautiful. Believe it or not, I didn’t take a single photograph. I consciously passed that task to wonderful professionals so that I could just be ‘dad’.
Monday, Matthew & his new bride Jessica left to drive to Alaska where they will be stationed for a few years. I can’t wait to go visit! (Yes, I will take my camera…) This was a great week for family to visit. Sixth Street in Austin Texas is known an one of the great streets in the world to go party. Every year during the international music festival ‘South by Southwest’ it is even more so. This year (2010) St. Patrick’s day fell during SXSW to add even more fuel to the event. My sister & I went down to the ‘party’ just to watch the crowds and take a few photos.
