We have found ourselves in Austin.
Why Austin?
Austin is the capital of the U.S.
state of Texas. It is the 11th-most populous city in the United
States and the 4th-most populous city in Texas. It is the fastest growing large city in the United States and
the southern-most state capital in the contiguous 48 states.
At night, parts of Austin are lit by
"artificial moonlight" from Moonlight
Towers built to illuminate the central part
of the city. The 165-foot (50 m) moonlight towers were built in the late
19th century and are now recognized as historic landmarks.
Austinites include a diverse mix of government employees, college
students, and musicians. The city's official slogan promotes Austin as
"The Live Music Capital of the World," a reference to the city's many
musicians and live music venues. In
recent years, some Austinites have also adopted the unofficial slogan "Keep
Austin Weird," which refers to the desire to protect
small, unique, and local businesses from being overrun by large corporations.
Why not Austin?
