#TBT Back in the Day in Lake Travis: Piggly Wiggly, Horses & Mudding in Rough Hollow

Written by Cathy Hale | September 22, 2016

“I remember when …” seems to be a common response when you tell someone you reside in the Lake Travis area. There are lots of folks who may not live here now, but fondly remember spending quality time here back in the day.

What’s funny is most of these stories revolve around Randalls. For example …

“I remember when The Chair King was Randalls …”

“I remember when the Randalls was the Lakeway Rodeo.”

Whaaa? There was a rodeo in Lakeway?

“I remember when Randalls was AppleTree.”

Okay, you win!

In order to paint an accurate picture of what the area truly looked like, we consulted with Lake Travis resident, real estate broker, and entrepreneur Cassie Ford. Her family moved to the Lakeway area in 1981 when she was a kid.

If you’re one of those people who likes to wax nostalgic about the glory days of Lake Travis, feel free to help us fill in the blanks with your own memories.

If you’re new to the Lake Travis area, sit back, grab a cup of coffee and take an entertaining journey with us on this Throwback Thursday!

Lake Travis Update: A Surprisingly Soggy End to Summer

Written by Cathy Hale | August 17, 2016

Triple-digit temperatures in the Lake Travis area rolled out as quickly as they arrived back in July. Blazing heat and crunchy yellow grass has been exchanged for unusually cool and rainy days this week.

Austin just had the coolest August 15th on record since the 1800s. If you were wearing a long sleeve jacket in your home yesterday and watching the Olympics tucked under a blanket, you weren’t alone.

Thanks to all of the rain, Lake Travis is back up to 95% full. Waking up to your smartphone honking and buzzing at you is part of the process as the lake refills and you deal with flash flooding. And flash flooding in this area is serious business.
