Checking out some more of Austin, and heading out of town to get a cargo we'll be taking to Junction.
Great Scott!
That bare walkway stretching out of sight along an empty river is a little sus. Looks like a case of ran-out-of-time-but-who-cares-no-one's-going-to-look-anyway-itis. Sorry guys, I looked.
An old Datsun!
Austin has its own insanely convoluted intersection.
Large, low-rise hotel.
Two jobsites at this location, Newmont and Amish Furniture.
We're dropping this off at Amish Furniture.
Then we went for one last tune-up and new paintjob for the Volvo - nearing the end of Part 3 now.
Slammed on the brakes and headed in for tacos.
Then it was time to set off on our penultimate journey - Austin to Junction. Yep, we're back near Junction again.
Still caught a few decent views on the way out.
We're just cutting across the apex of the southern point of the upside-down triangle of roads around central Texas, and I didn't expect to see anything particularly special on the way.
Austin still visible, just about.
However, central Texas is the gift that just keeps on giving, and once again we found ourselves passing through some very pleasant scenery.
???!!!! The journey to the Robert Monday vineyards and on to Junction will have to wait till next time.
Cheers! Krigl
