Final Day in the Hill Country

Got up Sunday morning and remembered we had talked about a trip to Cabella's. The honey said it would be okay to skip but after the many places he's gone for me, I felt a trip to Cabella's was a MUST. Didn't hurt that it was only about 15 miles away.

If you've ever been to Bass Pro you have idea of what it's like to go to Cabella's. Even so, it was cool looking at the various displays.

From Cabella's we headed for downtown and since we were hungry we headed for food (If we'd known what all our bike VIP passes allowed we'd have eaten there--next year!!). I had seen a spot on Diners, Drive ins and Dives about Casino El Camino in Austin--basically a bar with 'bar food' consisting of insane burgers, fries and wings. It was actually a good choice since it was about noon on a Sunday--we got there before any crowd. Bugers and beer--at least the honey had beer.

Bellies full we headed for our ultimate destination; the Bob Bullock Museum and the finish line for the MS150. Too bad this map was incorrect about where museum parking was....but the honey found us a place just on the edge of the UT campus and only a few blocks from the museum. We were able to watch the riders come in from the second floor bistro concourse....honey had a beer...and if we'd been hungry there was all sorts of delicious looking fare....I had a bottle of water and a peanut butter cookie that I split with the honey.

It's a cool sight wathcing all the riders come in after two days of cycling from Houston. Many partipate to fulfill personal goals but many do participate for the cause--raising funds to erase MS.
