LTL Weekly & This Weekend in Lake Travis: May 17-19, 2019

Written by Todd Hower | May 16, 2019

When cellulose gum will kill you …

A Lake Travis High School student snagged regional and state science fairs with his new way to kill zebra mussels by clogging their filters. And, his method is naturally biodegradable.

When you can’t dry out …

Even though Austin has received above average rainfall this month at 6.82 inches, we’re nowhere close to the record. The record rainfall for May — Austin’s rainiest month — was set in 2015 with 17.59 inches. Here’s why the Central Texas drought is in doubt.

When you need a refuge …

Randy Jamieson is leading an effort to use golf courses to protect people if escape routes are cut off during a wildfire.

When the regular old lake doesn’t cut it …

Try out one of these 8 waterparks near Austin.

When you visit Bee Cave …

These are the places where you can eat, drink, and stay.

When one door opens, another one closes …

Jason’s Deli new location in Lakeway is now open. Toscano, located in the Oaks at Lakeway, is now closed.

When there’s a snake in your boot …

Don’t put in on. Do this stuff instead.
