Wednesday

Wednesday: We make it through the whole days conference (including the key note at 8:30am. Some good classes today. Tonight the LabVIEW user group is heading over to the Salt Lick. It's about 20 miles out of town. It's in a dry county, so we have to stop and pick up our own beer to bring. The Salt Lick is in Driftwood, TX. I think the website is www.saltlickbbq.com. It's all you can eat for $13.95. Woo-Hoo. We do some damage there. Here is a shot of the group that went to the Salt Lick:

We then head back to Austin to catch the tail-end of the shindig given by NI at Buffalo Billiards. This place is cool. It has two floors with bars, pool tables, foozball, shuffleboard (with those puck things and the sawdust), and air hockey... yes... air hockey. The upstairs is also divided into two rooms. The open area that overlooks the downstairs and closed off room where a band usually plays. The music was pretty cool: Saliva, Alice in Chains, Limp Bizkit, etc... Here is a random shot at Buffalo Billiards:



ANd this Buffalo Billiard's shot pretty much sums up the quirkiness of Austin:



We finally bail out and head back to the room. ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
