Fly Fishing
Yesterday I posted a link to a post on An Austin Angler's Journal written by my friend Andy about our 2010 fly fishing trip on the Big Thompson River in Rocky Mountain National Park. This reminded me that a while back I had written a post about this fly fishing trip and the guide we hired. Check out each post if you're interested in fly fishing in Colorado and/or on the Big Thompson River.
Andy's post is pretty good... and now I'd rather be fishing in Colorado as opposed to sitting in my office. I'd also like to note that in 2011 we went back to the Big Thompson but didn't hire a guide. Andy caught some trout; however, after my less successful attempts I decided that hiring a guide in the future would be money well spent.

Bar & Grill: Law of Ages

| Bar & Grill's 20th Anniversary Show: Law of Ages |
If there are two things everyone knows, it's that lawyer themed musical comedies are hilarious and that 80's music is awesome. Now, for one night only, you can experience both on the same stage with Bar & Grill's 20th Anniversary Show: Law of Ages.
In addition to being your best source in Austin for lawyer themed musical comedy, Bar & Grill is an annual fundraiser for the Austin Young Lawyers Association Foundation. The AYLA Foundation supports a variety of charitable projects, including (but not limited to) Holiday Baskets, Christmas for Kids, They Had a Dream Too, The Women's Resource Fair, and mentoring programs.

Mobile: Be Careful with You ZAGGFolio
A few weeks ago, I put up a post about my new ZAGGFolio keyboard case for my iPad2. So far, I've found the case to be fairly useful. It the keyboard came in quite handy for taking notes at the AGRIP Conference in Colorado Springs and work working remotely in the Denver Airport. My one warning, however, would be to not drop the case. Earlier today mine fell from desktop height and the result was several keys popping off of the keyboard. I was able to get most of them back on, but one of the direction keys seems like it is just itching to pop back off.
- The take-away: my ZAGGFolio didn't fall very far for a mobile device, but turned out to be surprisingly fragile. Be careful if you have one. I still recommend it, though, as being handy for note taking and remote work involving a lot of typing on the iPad.

Food: Bert's BBQ Returns to Campus Area
| T-Man at Bert's BBQ |
The campus location of Bert's BBQ burned down about five years ago. It was a dark day for Austin. However, Bert's BBQ is back with a new campus area location. Having taken over the space of the Wing Stop on 24th, it's convent to those in the downtown area. More importantly, though, it's nice to see Bert's bounce back and have a second store open after the loss of the original location on MLK.
I enjoy the three meat (brisket, sausage, ribs) plate. However, my favorite item at Bert's has traditionally been the T-Man (a mixture, of beans, sausage, cubed brisket, and BBQ sauce). What I haven't tried yet (for reasons I can't explain) is the Turbo, a bowl containing the T-Man in addition to the ingredients for a Frito Pie. I plan to remedy this oversight at some point next week.
