Written by Todd Hower | April 3, 2015

It’s hard to believe we are already three months into 2015 — welcome to the first weekend in April!

We have your weekend roundup of live music in the Lake Travis area and places to go for Easter Brunch on Sunday. You’ll also find a good mix of local events, big city events (with a pet theme), and events that are worth taking a drive out to the Hill Country.

Get out there and enjoy your weekend in and around the Lake Travis area!

Lake Travis: Full for 4th of July Weekend!

Written by Todd Hower | April 1, 2015

Get ready for a full Lake Travis!

Early this morning, the Lower Colorado River Authority (LCRA) settled an agreement with the Northern Atlantic Iceberg Authority (NAIA) for the purchase and transport of an iceberg to Lake Travis.

The iceberg selection team has located three possible candidates that are the right size and shape to make the trek from Greenland to Lake Travis. After final calculations on size and weight are determined, the lucky iceberg to land in LT will be announced.

Scheduled for the first week of May, the three-week journey will begin west of Greenland in Baffin Bay. The iceberg will be lassoed by large tow boats that will pull the massive ice cube through the ocean waters. They’ll head south along the East Coast of the United States, through the North Atlantic Ocean, down and around Florida through the Gulf of Mexico and up to Galveston.

Easter Brunch 2015: Lake Travis and Beyond

Written by Todd Hower | March 31, 2015

Do you remember as a kid waking up early on Easter Sunday and searching all over the house for your Easter basket filled with chocolate rabbits, jelly beans and those weird marshmallow bunnies coated with pink sugar?

April 5th is Easter Sunday!

It’s a popular time to eat Cadbury Creme Eggs and Peeps Bunnies at 6:00am, put on your Sunday best, go to church and go out for Easter Brunch.

And for that reason, we put together our annual list of places to go for Easter Brunch. Most are here in the Lake Travis area, but a few are a bit further away — included because they’re well worth the drive.

From eggs and bacon and mimosas on a patio overlooking Lake Travis to the all-you-can-eat-buffet with brisket and live gospel music. Wherever you decide, make your reservation early, as this is one of the more popular days for families and visitors to enjoy Sunday brunch.

Spring has arrived and so has the weather we’ve all been waiting for! Plenty of sunshine and temps in the 80’s will make it the perfect weekend to enjoy some of your favorite Lake Travis area patios along with this weekend’s live music lineup — especially after a day of raking leaves!

Easter events are kicking off this weekend with Eggstravaganza at Lakeway City Park. Take a drive downtown and kick-off spring at the Zilker Garden Festival or catch the final weekend of Rodeo Austin. Make a trip out to the Hill Country for berry picking and The Mike Cupps Memorial Lawnmower Races at Sweet Berry Farm.

It’s the weekend and the start of spring break in the Lake Travis area!

You may be headed to the Texas Coast …

or to the mountains for skiing …

or staying right here and having a stay-cation in the Lake Travis area. You’ll have plenty to choose from including two of Austin’s biggest events — SXSW is underway and Rodeo Austin will be kicking things off on March 14th.

In fact, there’s so much to do during the week of spring break that we decided to take the week off too! But we’re not going to leave you without our weekend roundup and a list of family friendly activities for spring break in the Lake Travis area.

From all of us here at LT Lifestyle — enjoy your spring break and we’ll look forward to catching up with you when we return on Monday, March 23.
