Folks Of Interest I'm back in Austin, for good

Discussion in 'The Hokey Ass Message Board' started by Mike Zenor, Oct 19, 2014.

  1. Hey all you Kontinentals and Yay Hoos! That last Illinois winter kicked my ass, so me and the Mrs bought a little ranchette in Cedar Park, and we just moved in last night. Plenty of room for a big hot rod garage, construction on which begins soon, and thereafter stuffed with my 29, 31 and 32.

    Hope to see you all around the ATX. Don't be a stranger!

    Excelsior!

    Austin can be cold in the Winter but the next day it's back to normal. Don't put Mayonaise on French Fries.
     
  6. I believe I would choose the Texas weather over Illinois winters. HRP

    Hey Mike,
    Great to have you and the fam in Texas on a permanent basis. Hope to see you at Pistons & Paint in Denton in a few weeks, but will definitely run onto you somewhere in the area by Roundup. If you get brave enough to venture south of Hwy 290, shoot me a "conversation" for contact info. There's always a few hot rods and cheap beers around my place.

    Stay there this time! :) J/K
    We're supposed to get a lot of snow this winter AND cold. You should come back.
     
  17. I'll think of you every time it snows....

    Welcome back Mike! Glad you came to your senses and came back to the best city on earth. :) Get in touch with David (D.W.) and I and we'll plan an outing.

    Cheers

  19. Good move, Austin is much better than Chicago; for a lot of reasons besides winter.

  24. Wow! This thread is like an old timers HAMB reunion. Here's our new joint in CP... will be working with architect Nick Deaver to plan a cool matching garage, and post progress on Garage Journal.

    I really dig the design and look of your home, welcome back to centex! I feel like I've seen it before was it ever featured in 'dwell'?

    Hey, I like that house. Are there anymore of them for sale in CP. We have another Maine winter headed our way and I'm not looking forward to it.
