I do like how Iowa St. is just a block from the Alamodome.

The fact that he turned a single statement by JP into a column by posting tweets and then copying them word for word is an inspiration in essay writing to this former 12 year old student.

Modern journalism at its finest.

Guessing quite a few more. Heck if you just read the "Alamo Tickets" thread on this site quite a few people have said they have done that.

Here's a tip from the snowbird RV community for taking Texas 130/45 toll road around Austin. After taking the exit off of I-35 onto Texas 130/45 toll road ( #130 southbound and #45 northbound) in a few miles you will come to a toll booth. As you approach the toll booth stay in one of the two left lanes designated "Pay by Mail".

Don't be concerned with paying. So far, Texas has not been mailing toll bills for out-of-state vehicles. I was tipped off to this by people on a Snowbird RV forum that I am active on. Since being tipped off I have done this numerous times and have never gotten a toll bill from Texas. The last time I did it was in March of 2017.

If they have started sending out toll bills since then, you will have still saved time by not stopping at the toll booth (I noticed quite a long line at the toll booths as I bypassed them).

In addition, the toll road is fairly nice and new, lightly traveled, and has a speed limit of 80 mph. Hint: in the times that I have taken it, I have never seen a patrolman on it. Rather than getting back on I-35 south of Austin you can continue on Toll Rd 130 south to I-10 and then take I-10 west into San Antonio. Nice, fast route.

Is this a quicker route than just staying on 35 through Austin?
