I grew up in Austin during the 60’s and early 70’s.

It was quite a place back then.

“It was quite a place back then.”

Yeah, grew up along South Congress and watched the first Schlotzky’s open up down the street, watched the World Premier of the Batman movie at the Paramount theater, Putt-putted at Peter Pan miniature golf course, swam when the swimming was good at zilker, tried to climb one of the ‘moonlight towers’ at night, dropped in at Armadillo World HQ, ate at The Shanty BBQ, saw Jerry Jeff Walker at Schultz’s, skinny dipped in Barton Creek, went parking at Mt Bonnell(and also the Driskill hotel parking lot, and watched UT win 30 in a row.

Great days.
