I really can't say it better than their website "For more than two decades, The Little Longhorn Saloon has served as the center of Austin’s honky-tonk country music scene. Have a cold, fresh draft beer for a dollar or two. The staff is happy to be there and happy to see you. Happy Hour six-days a week and then on Sunday it’s the you-gotta-see-it-to-believe-it Chicken Shit Bingo (if you don’t know, seriously, Google it, and welcome to Austin)"

With swimming holes, miles of trails and even a few secret caves, the Barton Creek Greenbelt brings so much joy to Austin residents. Enjoy from a few access points around the city, bring a picnic, bring a swimsuit and prepare yourself to fall in love a little.
