City Cast Austin
😋 Where to spend your money during Pride
August 13, 2024 · Kelsey Bradshaw
👋 Good morning and Happy Tuesday! I can’t stop thinking about the goats who have returned to Ann and Roy Butler Hike and Bike Trail along Shoal Beach to eat unwanted vegetation. I’m so proud of them and hope they have union support and nice 401(k) matching!
Thank you to Tecovas, our exclusive launch sponsor and Western wear favs for their support!
