Project 365 | Week 26

Happy Sunday evening! I hope all of you had a lovely weekend and managed to stay cool wherever you were. We had a little rainstorm here last night, which cooled things off considerably today. (I love that the upper 90s are considered "cool" this time of year.) Without further ado, here are my pictures for Week 26:

Friday Finds

Happy Friday! I hope all of you have had a great week. It's hot here in Austin — the high was 106 today, and the triple digits will continue through the weekend. I'm planning to stay inside where it's nice and cool over the next few days. I'm planning to spend my time reading and working on a few projects.

A few articles that caught my eye this week...

Are Books Obsolete?

Cats that look like pin-up girls (While the cats are cute, some of the pin-up girls leave little to imagination. You have been warned.)

Off to Louisiana | New Orleans

My travel day on Sunday ended up being much longer and crazier than I anticipated. After multiple flight delays, I arrived in Austin a little after 11 p.m. and made it back to my apartment after midnight. I was practically a walking zombie the next day at work. Fortunately, I found out about the first flight delay before I made it to the airport, so my parents and I were able to take a short tour of New Orleans.

Off to Louisiana | Baton Rouge

On Saturday, my dad and I decided to explore downtown Baton Rouge. We started out at the Red Stick Farmers Market and then drove over to Louisiana State Capitol. Even though I had visited the Capitol when I was little, I didn't remember much, so it was nice to see everything again.

Off to Louisiana | Houmas House Plantation

After the bridal luncheon on Saturday, Mom, Esther and I joined Pam and Sandy to look around the grounds of Houmas House Plantation. Everything was just so beautiful, and I enjoyed taking pictures of the different flowers, trees, and fountains.
