Natural, Organic July 4th- Tour de Austin

Tour de Austin July 4th

Read this post like the kabala- backwards

1.Stop number one- Boggy Creek Farm for some fresh, organic cucumbers, tomatoes, string beans, arugula, and watermelon.
2.Next, 3 mile run Lady Bird Lake. Hot!
3.Swim Barton Spring. 68 degrees straight out of Edwards Aquifer. Refreshing!
4.11:30AM in the park. I'm soaked from running in 98 degree heat. A party gets started early here in Austin. Adult beverages and a suspicious Jamaican odor coming from an unidentified, but very happy group of locals hanging out under ye olde shade tree. "It's 5:00PM somewheres" These guys make me feel really healthy and responsible.
5. Amphibious jeep. Ready for land and water.
6. Lance Armstrong's bicycle shop: Yellow Johnny's (7 yellow jerseys) and Juan Pelota Coffee Shop. I stopeed in for a soy latte in recognition of Lance's re-entry into the Tour de France today after a four year absence "retirement". The TV was on with Lance peddling his heart out. Say what you want about Lance. He has the biggest heart in the world, literally.
7. Whole Foods Market refridgerated beer room. The Belgian Abbey Ale shelf. Paradise found! There is a blessing in every bottle.....so the Catholic Friars say. This Whole Foods Market is the world-wide HQ /show place. My favorite grocery, health food emporium. Thanks John Mackey! An Austin original.
8.Spirited Food Company- Jesse Griffiths, stirring up July 4th treats. I bought bratwurst for tonight's BBQ. Dai Due.
9. Slow food assembled on the counter top.
10. The Jack-in-the-Blog grilling on natural hardwood coals....Dai Due bratwurst.

Incredible dinner!

Fireworks did not materialize. OK

AHO
