If I am misremembering, which is possible since my last trip to Texas was in 1982, then how about a romantic picnic somewhere.

My favorite part of Austin - where I've only spent two days - was the river. The bats are cool. But not everyone finds bats romantic. Go figure.

And things on the River Walk are wayyyyyy overpriced! lol As far as romantic picnic, I'm not sure Ethan and I are at that point yet; I know we're definitely not following Jim's second suggestion! lol As for theatre, I've already seen both things that are at our professional theatre, but I'll go ahead and see what else I can find that might be playing in one of the smaller places here in town. Terminus - I'd totally be down with re-watching Super Bowls in which my team won, but he's not all that into sports, at least not football... after all, he's from Detroit. As far as a walk down near Lady Bird Lake, yeah, that's a possibility... or maybe the sculpture garden down at Zilker... we'll figure it out, by golly! If all else fails, we can either go with my regular Saturday night (poker) or his (comedy), but I'd like to change it up a bit if we can...
