Originally, Mas Austin started out as a photo album on my Facebook account. I started it when I first moved here in 2006 to chronicle the random things my friends and I did around the city. The pictures were pretty poor, still are, but for whatever reason it eventually got to the point where folks would ask, “Dude, when are you going to get me in the Mas Austin album?!” I eventually took that idea and bought this domain and had pictures up with the same idea in mind.
Now, though, it’s morphed into a fun way to chronicle our new travails through Austin as parents. My wife and I have been in Austin for quite a few years – she went to UT and I moved here just after college – so we jumped into Austin from a much different place. We put in our time and now want to share as much of the city with our 18 month old as we can. We hope our stories help you navigate the city with your family with ease!
