Addie Broyles was one of the first people to follow me on twitter.  She provided some positive feedback about When in Austin. As a fan of her writing, her comment and acknowledgement provided motivation and I quickly added her to my wish list of interviews.

I am going to warn you up front.  This interview is good. Not because of anything I did.  Addie was a joy to listen to and I hope you enjoy listening to her as much as I did that day walking through her backyard....with her chickens.

Listen in as I explore East End Wines.  A really cool home built in the 1890's that is now converted into a wine shop.  The layout presents itself like a library. The coolest thing is Matt and Sam have personally tasted and selected each bottle on the shelves.  They view each bottles presence as a competition for that space.  They have tastings most Friday afternoons at 4pm.  Follow them on twitter for the latest updates @EastEndWines.

We have all had the experience of sitting at work, starting out a window and day dreaming.  Dreaming of places that you would rather be maybe even dreaming of the day when you would not have to work a 9-5 type of job. 

 

Meet Chet Garner of the The Daytripper.com - Chet has a show on PBS   about exploring Texas, one day at a time.

 

Listen in as Chet tells his story.

I love Austin Texas.  It is simply an amazing city.  The people that you meet in this town are inspirational, either by taking their hobby to a new level, starting up their own business or merely living life to the fullest.   

I created When in Austin to capture and share with you the stories that I find.  I want to introduce to you people and places that I believe have an interesting story to share.

Each month I explore Austin with my audio recorder in hand looking to capture stories about life in Austin. I hope you enjoy my efforts and if you do please share them with a friend. 

 

This month I have 3 stories to share.

• Chet Garner from TheDaytripper.com
• Matt and Sam from East End Wines
• A Story about Texas 42 - Meet a group of people that are keeping the Texas Tradition alive.

Each Story will be posted on a Monday.  I think you will enjoy them.  

 

Sincerely,

T Grier
