Lake Travis holds off Hendrickson, 34 to 24.
Lake Travis managed to hold off a tenacious Hendrickson in a game that went down to the wire tonight. The Cav’s first game on the road was a tough one, much closer than the final score would indicate. For much of the game, the Cavs were able to maintain just a three point lead over the Hawks. This is 48th win in a row for Lake Travis, with pretty much every team the Cavs play hoping to take them out.

Lake Travis Rules! 32-21 Lake Travis over Westlake
Continuing their winning streak to 47 over the past three years, the unstoppable Lake Travis Cavaliers came back from a 21-10 deficit securing a 32-21 victory over the Westlake Chapparells. The Cavs had a tough time finding their rhythm, but once found (in 3rd quarter), they scored 22 unanswered points!!!
By the end of the game, quarterback Michael Brewer racked up 289 passing yards, and MVP Griffin Gilbert, received nine passes for 164 yards. The defense found their feet in the second half as well, though allowing 103 rushing yards in the first half, only 5 yards was gained by Westlake in the second. In fact, some of the key plays that tipped the balance were made by defense; Austin Williams owned the field with nine tackles and a critical 33-yard return interception!!! The key play that sealed the Lake Travis victory was a 20 yard interception return by Tyler Paulsen with 8 minutes left in the 4th quarter.
Way to go Cavs!!!

Zinger’s: Game Time at Dinner
We heard about a great new place called Zinger’s. Since a Zinger was my favorite childhood snack (Chocolate Zingers from Hostess) I thought it would be a great idea to check things out.
Zingers has a lot of things going for it… especially for a family. We have adults, and we have kids, so there are a lot of varied interests. At first glance Zingers is somewhat of a sports bar, but don’t let that hold you back. Zingers has great food at great prices. The big ol’ bar features drinks of ever kind. Many flat screen TVs including one huge one to watch soccer, football, or whatever. The place is loaded with table-side games (you have to put $ money in, but they are fun and inexpensive). Our table was right by the Wii and Rock Band making dinner and play a total blast!
Outdoor and indoor seating (of course) plus Thursday night music on the lawn (at least, during the summer). Since it is located right on the main drag of the Galleria, the location is super convenient for going to a movie or shopping before or after dinner.
We look forward to going back…maybe even without the kiddos=)
El Arroyo (The Ditch)! 5th street… BOWLING ALLEY BURGER!
Although El Arroyo up and pulled out of Bee Cave, the 5th street location met us with excellent service and enough lunch to bring home a doggie bag.
Among the Tex-Mex fair, the Bowling Alley Burger is one of the very best in Austin!!!
We always enjoy super service, fresh food, and refreshing drinks. I especially love the friendly smiles while my husband is thankful for the Daily Happy Hour specials (ie Two for One burgers…)
Drop by El Arroyo (aka The Ditch) and let them know LakeTravis.org sent ya! Thanks=) Take 5th Street exit off Mopac. Travel one block and turn left on Campbell. You will see the sign on the corner.
Note* their website is under construction and leans toward ‘not so family friendly humor.’ Just as an FYI. Thank you.
Burger Tex, Oak Hill’s local burger joint
16 years in Austin, Mr. and Mrs. Sang Ju greet you with a smile in their casual, clean and friendly restaurant. Boasting fresh (never frozen) choice USDA all beef patties with a menu to please even the vegan pallet. Veggie burgers. Chicken -fried or grilled, catfish, shrimp, so much more.
The food is so good that even the Green Beret’s host their monthly food fest in the Oak Hill location and leave full-n-happy every time! They’ve gifted Burger Tex with an American Flag which hangs proudly on the wall of a semi-private dining room.
Hwy 71 and William Cannon in the Oak Hill Centre. Open Seven days a week. Oh! Be sure to hug multi-lingual Ms. Paula. She’s Burger Tex’s greatest asset!
Spicy Parrot in Lakeway – Date night or bring the whole family!
We found Great food. Thirst quenchers. A healthy dose of Austin’s best music (even bought a CD). Beautiful atmosphere. Where the owner’s are well enough staffed they stop and get to know you.
The Spicy Parrot is a must, not just once, but once a week! Need a regular hang out or simply a neighborhood spot to call your own, fly into the Parrot. Where feel good cookin’ and warm neighbors are keepin’ the lights on for you.
Drop a line to let us know when you’re goin’ and we’ll meet you there!
