Georgetown at Night

How many of us remember Austin during the '60's and '70's ?  It was surrounded by the hills on one side and wide open fields on the other. The Capitol could be easily viewed from any angle. The U.T. Tower was the reference point for those that needed orientation. Way before GPS for the public. The entertainment district of 6th Street was up and coming paving the way to becoming the icon for Music Capital of the World. And "The Drag" , Guadalupe (affectionately pronounced "guadaloop"), the second hang-out of choice. Eateries, such as Conan's Pizza, Whole-in-the-Wall, and Antone's also hosted up and coming musicians. Yes, I can remember those days.
  The Square of Georgetown share some of those elements that make Austin what it is. I came down to the Square Thursday night around 7:30 pm, the moon was full and clouds were thin. I noticed parking lots full of cars at the restaurants near the Square. Among them, the endearing, yet enduring, Monument Cafe. There is a music store on the Square, Kenz Guitars. They were open, and the staff were sitting in front of the store playing guitars and banjos. I stopped to take a few pictures. A few lucky strollers also stopped to listen to the jam session. I then strolled into the nearby Coffee Shop, Cianfrani's and saw more live music and a gallery display. Memories of old Austin came to me. I felt taken back into time ... What could possibly be ahead for this diamond in the rough, The Square ?
