If it's on a Saturday, I'd enjoy that. Any other day and I'm working.
We're about half-way between San Antonio and Austin...Round Rock being
just the other side of Austin from here. Maybe 2 hours. I've been wanting
to try the toll road, aka hwy 130, around Austin...Downtown Austin, even
on the freeway is always stop and go traffic on 3 to 5 lanes going both
directions. One pet peeve I have about Texas is that they don't know how
to design a freeway nor do they know how to build one under the estimated
completeion time. It usually takes a year longer than they thought.
