The thought occured to me this weekend as I was floating on Lake Travis – that life really is pretty good!   The weather has been great this summer – the lake is still almost full and the water temperature remains refreshing. We parked the boat in one of our favorite coves and I totally relaxed in my noodle chair with something chilled to drink. As I listened to the sounds of other people enjoying the day – I just had to think how lucky I am to be living here.
     Before moving back to Austin after an extended stay in Seattle, we did our research. Where is the best place for us to live? Everyone’s criteria will be different, but ours was: Warm weather, fresh water lake close by, low cost of living, vibrant community, low crime, and plenty of fun things to do. After 2 years of research via vacations, we chose Austin. Our family has vacationed  around Lake Travis for years – why not make it permanent?
    Since living here – we are continually thankful for our wise decision. My only regret is that we didn’t move sooner so our children would live close by. AHaa – hindsight! No looking back now.  We’re here now — and forever!  Enjoy what’s left of the summer.
