It’s another Lake Travis Lifestyle Happy Hour! Join us August 19 from 6-9 p.m. at We Olive in the Hill Country Galleria for sips and small plates.

You can enjoy 25% off any retail, food or beverage purchase and complimentary EVOO (extra virgin olive oil) and balsamic tastings. As an added bonus, there will be a trunk show from COCABANG, a TGIFITS brand specializing in designer denim for athletic and fit women.

We Olive is a gourmet shop and wine bar where you can discover fresh, artisan olive oils and unique balsamics, as well as taste artisan wines, local microbrews and small bites. Think of it as an artisan adventure! There’s always something new to try because We Olive changes their line-up of olive oils, food and wine based on the best seasonal offerings.

Hey, happy weekend Lake Travis!

This weekends featured event is one that you’ll have to get up early to catch — consider it good practice for the kids that will be heading back to school in just a couple of weeks. Tempt them with some donuts and make your way to Mansfield Dam Park before the sun comes up to watch the 25th Annual Lake Travis Flight.

It’s also Tax-Free Weekend (August 7-9) and a good time to knock out some back-to-school shopping. The Hill Country Galleria is hosting a back-to-school shopping event this Friday and Saturday. You can have fun shopping tax-free and get a $20 gift card when you spend $100 on back-to-school items.

I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice cream! It’s the 9th Scoop Austin Ice Cream Festival this Saturday with live music, games, contests and plenty of free ice cream. Don’t miss the ice cream eating contest to see who’s taking home the spoon this year.

Here is your Lake Travis area weekend roundup filled with places to go and people to see. As always, thank you for supporting our local businesses, events and live music scene — Live Local!

It’s hard to believe that July is coming to an end. Summer is more than halfway through and the kids will be back at school soon. That means it’s time to get back in the swing of the school year — waking up early, packing lunches, doing homework, school drop-off and pickup … and school traffic — yikes!

But you don’t have to start practicing your school driving maneuvers just yet. And the kids don’t have to practice waking up early … maybe next week. There are still ways to enjoy the final few weeks (and weekends) of summer. Squeeze in one more vacation down on the Texas Gulf Coast, escape the heat with a road trip to the mountains, or explore a few of the Lake Travis area swimming spots you haven’t made it out to yet.

What ever happened to that giant water slide that was supposed to be coming to Austin? Maybe next summer.
