A Growing Austin

“When I was growing up all of this was farm land.” This is a comment an old lady would say to her grandchildren, but instated it is me – a twenty-one-year-old – talking to my boyfriend as we drive down Mopac. Austin is growing and regretfully it shows no signs of stopping. Farms have turned into shopping centers, Mam and Pap places are now tourist locations, and the highways are parking lots.
