With more rain in the forecast, this weekend looks like it could be a wet one — come on 681′! But don’t let the wet weather spoil your weekend fun … there are plenty of things to do inside and out — grab your umbrella just in case.
Besides all the live music and events in the Lake Travis area, there are also a couple of indoor events in the big city. If you’re hanging out with the kiddos, I recommend Austin Museum Day on Sunday (a perfect thing to do on a rainy day). For a date day/night, be sure and check out Fantastic Fest going on at the Alamo Drafthouse on South Lamar.
