Darn, maybe next time! That's the issue with always planning trips last second.
Weather was indeed great. I guess we got lucky with Micklethwaits, we had tried Franklin BBQ right before it and they were estimating almost two hours (this was around 2PM).

A helpful report for me, as Austin (and San Antonio) are in my thoughts for 2020 ... along with Charleston. Two weeks hopping between them could be good, and rack up a good few BA Tier points in the process!
Thanks! Sounds like an awesome trip, enjoy!

I can imagine. I saw a jogger moving a bunch from the middle of the sidewalk at one point. Such an easy concept, it's not that hard...

We may be too old to start trying to use scooters.

I saw some older couples using them actually, super easy to use.
