Austin
11 Mar
Well, here we are! Owen, our faithful intern, and I are in Austin at the hotel. I’m putting together digital press kits and arranging last minute travel details for Josh & Samantha, and Owen is braving the hotel printer in the business suite trying to get a map printed out for his walking route tomorrow to put up posters.
We had our first Texas BBQ. That was fun
I flew out way too early this morning, so only got four hours sleep. Tonight I’m going to hit the bed like a log, and then tomorrow, we hit the ground running for our last day of prep before the festival opens on Friday!
For Austin-ites (Austonians?), I have heard that individual tickets can be purchased day of, subject to availability. But if you’re here for the week, then get a pass to the whole festival and see everything! ‘Night all. – Ben


Best of wishes for the Lebanon, Pa primier. Enjoy Austin while you are there – misic, bluebonnets, etc. If time permits [I know doubtful] try the Lady Bird Johnson Wildflower Center.
Several months ago I sent Samantha a DVD copy of a short 1963 film her mother appeared in. I am curious to know if she received it and was able to view it.
