Another weekend is here and we are just nine days away from Christmas!
Get ready for some football on Saturday when Lake Travis meets Woodlands at Arlington’s AT&T Stadium and goes for state championship number six!
Where did the week go? …
Do you want to stay in shape over the holiday break or get in shape for 2017? You can do that while enjoying the outdoors! On Wednesday, Shea Conner gave you a look at the River Place Nature Trail: The Most Underrated Hike in Austin.
Thursday brought us one day closer to wrapping up 2016, so Cathy Hale brought us back for a look at the 8 most talked about topics in 2016.
And that brings us to Friday and your weekend roundup for December 16-18. The weather has decided to kick off the start of holiday break with a crazy temperature swing, so enjoy it with a spike of warmth followed by an arctic blast!
