south austin homes: Winterizing your Austin home- Tips to prepare for the cold wet weather to come. - 10/05/09 10:54 AM
As a native Texan I have worn shorts on Christmas more often than not. However in Austin we do get some cold weather. Typically we get more freezing sleet and ice than real snow. So I am providing some tips to help you prepare for the upcoming in-climate weather.
Caulk around your windows and doors to seal up any gaps. This will prevent the warmed air from escaping and keep the cold air out of your home. Insulate you hot water heater. There are thermal blankets available at Lowe's and Home Depot and they are very inexpensive. Clean out the gutters on … (3 comments)

south austin homes: The drought in Austin brings unexpected visitor to Shady Hollow homes! - 08/14/09 12:32 PM
The Shady Hollow Home Owners Association has announced there have been reports of a few unwanted visitors in our south Austin neighborhood. Apparently this extreme drought is causing the area wildlife to look harder for water sources and food sources. So a few home-owners with doggie doors have found uninvited "guests" in their homes. A few people have found raccoons and possums creeping inside their homes through doggie doors to get food and water. It is best to secure these doors at night when these critters are out and about looking for food and water. Also there have been some reports … (9 comments)

south austin homes: Shady Hollow roads and local MUD and annexation news - 04/01/09 04:13 PM
Recently I had a visit with John Roop the Shady Hollow Home Owners Association Manager. I went for a quick visit as I had questions about the new water main covers installed on my street. I noticed the shiny covers had "City of Austin" stamped on them. I am a mile and a half south of the Austin City Limits, so I was concerned. The old cover was just a plain slab of metal. So I got nervous that maybe Austin was taking over the Shady Hollow M.U.D. in preparation to annex Shady Hollow. 
I have lived through my town being annexed and fighting … (2 comments)

south austin homes: Quick Austin neighborhood History- Circle C - 03/21/09 04:24 PM
It seems most people in Austin have only been here a short time. I have been here over twenty years and therefore I personally remember some of our local history. I live very close to the Circle C Neighborhood and I remember when it was in the headlines just about every week. Cirle C is located just west of South MOPAC and south of Slaughter Lane and east of 1826. The neighborhood is comprised of single family homes, which are primarily constructed of native stone or brick.
In the beginning Circle C was developed by Gary Bradley. Gary was locally well … (0 comments)
