Ultimate Frisbee

My brother says that I need to post on more topics, like ultimate frisbee. While his point is that he’d like to see a wider range of coverage, I’m not sure that’s what this is about.

Go to Aussie’s!

I’m writing an article for Austin Woman magazine on sand volleyball in Austin, and I interviewed the owner of Aussie’s Beach Bar & Grill today. Danny Brinson is his name, and he was very friendly and open, a good interview! I can’t give too much away, but I can encourage everyone to go to Aussie’s!…
