This and That

(The view from Lady Bird Johnson Municipal Park, Fredericksburg, Texas. A highlight of our Kerrville weekend.)

This week was Spring Break and we packed in the family activities with a trip to Kerrville, a visit to the family farm, time with friends, and some fun restaurants, too.  Spring Break in Austin also means South by Southwest, and though most Austinites avoid the downtown crowds, I was following along via Twitter and our local music station.  Maybe one day, I’ll brave the sea of people and attend the interactive sessions.  In the meantime, here are a few stories that caught my eye this week.

One of Texas’ founding languages is quickly dying out.

“Is Women’s Media Too Girly?”  One writer’s take on a South by Southwest Panel, which brings up a host of questions.

And a small clip from the keynote speech by Dave Grohl.  You can watch the entire thing here.

Have a wonderful weekend!
