Today’s high in Austin was 81 degrees. Barton Springs is finally starting to feel a bit too chilly for that weekly dip. All the signs are clear: Summer is finally coming to an end.
While it may be time again to start thinking about blue jeans and hipster jackets, we can still give a fond look back at the closing of another beautiful summer here in Austin thanks to YouTube user Eugene Kim.
Kim put together this beautiful little video shot on a GoPro camera, showcasing his recent end-of-summer trip through Austin. He and some friends go get BBQ, head out to Ladybird Lake for some stand-up paddleboarding, climb the art-covered hills at the HOPE Outdoor Gallery, take in some delicious Homeslice Pizza, and close it all out with a scenic drive down Congress Avenue.
If you’ve got to pick some totally Austin activities to send off the summer, that’s about as good as you can get. Well done, Eugene!
