williamson county: The Sun WILL Come Up In The Morning - 07/22/08 07:40 PM
A couple of days ago, I rose early. My reward, when I went to the porch, was to get to enjoy this lovely sunrise:
It got me thinking about a saying that I've had for years, a saying that my daughter once told me was the most valuable

williamson county: Preparing For the Future, Country Style - 07/13/08 01:58 PM
It's summer here in Central Texas, grass is growing (well, it's struggling due to the lack of rain for the past month or so, but there's still forage for the critters), animals are eating, we're not having to feed any hay.

Another agent and I went out driving Friday afternoon to look at a property in eastern Williamson County, some acreage, that she may be listing. We found a beautiful property in need of a little TLC that would make a lovely horse property (remove some mesquite trees to highlight the fantastic

The State of Texas has just released a new program that will make it easier for some folks to drive clean and green (in more sense than one).

williamson county: Meet One Of Our Country Neighbors - Who Is It? Who? Who? - 12/20/07 08:24 AM
This morning, a beautiful sunny morning, I went out to feed the critters. As I wandered around my chores, I heard a familiar "Who? Who?" Feeding finished (priorities, of course), I wandered around to the front yard to see if I could locate the source. The leaves on the willow trees being

Yet another leg of Texas State Highway 130 will be opening on Thursday. Until now, SH130 was an easy (if not cheap) way to get from Northern Williamson County just north of Georgetown, south of Jarrell, to the eastern part of the Austin area as far south as 290, but no

williamson county: After The Storm - 07/01/07 09:05 AM
While we still have a 50% chance of rain in the area for the next several days, it looks like (knock on wood!) that the major flooding is over, at least on our place. So this morning we're pumping out the flooded storm shelter. It was difficult getting a photo, on

williamson county: The World Gets Smaller and Smaller - 12/14/06 09:25 PM
Our local world, anyway. State Highway 130 opened yesterday. Another of the new toll roads in Central Texas, this one bypasses Austin to the east, but provides quicker access to East Austin by avoiding IH35 from north of Georgetown down, thusfar, to U.S. 290, with access in Williamson County at State
