Following on the heels of the LIVESTRONG FALL PARADE OF TWO HOMES, DLC is said to be pondering the feasibility of starting a new Austin builders' tradition, THE PARADE OF TYVEK.
"Why wait until there's paint and shrubs and all that stuff?" asked John H.J. Farthing, promoter to the building trade.
Tyvek is the wrap used to make homes under construction look like a shipping envelope.

FIRE!
DLC is said to have shown interest in setting up a private fire department. To offset expenses, a line of Official Spanish Oaks Fireman's Unisex wardrobe is said to have been commissioned. Now your little boy or girl can learn fire safety and feel a part of it!
Timetable for the switchover from Hudson's Bend will be announced at a later date.
DONATION
An anonymous gift has shown the generosity of a local couple, who wish to be unnamed. They felt that the association could benefit from their old lawn tractor, to help get those grass-cutting chores done!

SO HOT
It's been so dry and hot here that the LCRA and local fire departments have declared it illegal to play the song Pennies From Heaven for fear of starting a grass fire.

PAY AS YOU GO PARTY
Issues arise, now that certain street repairs have been made.
A gala PAID party at the Lodge and pool will encourage conviviality. Certainly we can afford the admission to a delicious meal, and perhaps this is really a secret method to control the guesting issue we've seen in the past, whereby owners invite overflow guests, but it seems not-very-exclusive and Lubysesque, though the Jello cubes aren't on the menu.
Perhaps Discovery is still paying for the blowout announcing their partnership with Daniel Porter. THAT'S the scale of a premiere development.
BTW: We hear this fall's Livestrong home tour is down to two homes.

NAME CHANGE LOOMS
Spanish Oaks (Golf Club) could become SPANISH OAKS or PALM TREE Golf Club, based on an informal survey of new trees planted on the various estates. A colorful flock of parrots to be let free to roam the properties and piped in Jimmy Buffet music will complete the transition, according to cynics who recall the 'natrual' promise of Daniel Porter.
