to Austin, TX.


And although I wanted a tad more time in the Deep South (can you blame me?) . . . 


(why yes that is a peacock in our tree) 




And at my job at Coastal Living 

(I loved going to work everyday) . . . 







. . .I do adore Austin.

The day after we moved we were asked to submit a video as a possible location for Tig Notaro's Road Trip Documentary.  We didn't get picked but now we have a record of our first days in here.

to shop the Isabel Marant X H&M event.

This couldn't have happened in the Deep South and if I was still in NY or CA it would have sold out.
