I took Saturday afternoon off from the NF Forum and went a few blocks down to the state capital!  I was told this was one of the must sees in Austin.  It did not disappoint. It is definitely Texas-sized In their congressional area. ON the front lawn of the capital. There were statues all over the grounds.  A rotunda that was added when they needed more space (instead of building out, they built down and added over 600,000 square feet underground.
The chandeliers spell out Texas and there are Texas stars everywhere.

This was the governor’s house.  He was not there but I got to hear him speak later that evening at the forum!
