Round Rock Chalk Walk
We walked up to downtown Round Rock on Saturday for the annual? Chalk Walk. There were food trucks with fried cheese sandwiches; fresh ice cream from Maggie Moo’s; local music; and, after the show, beer at The Brass Tap and college football.
The shutdown does not appear to have affected any of it.
The Brass Tap has no food but a whole lot of beer. Very dangerous if we hadn’t walked over!
No idea if it’s true, but awesome idea for a chalk drawing. We need more car fact art.
Do not handle grounded bats. If they’re in the air and they get close enough it’s open season.

- Chalk Walk « Round Rock Art Council
- Round Rock Chalk Walk is the Round Rock Arts Council’s version of an Italian Street painting Festival. Artists are free to create, with chalk pastels, a picture on the concrete. Drawings are created in full view of the public, who are encouraged to interact with the artists as they use their amazing talents to create beautiful “murals” before their audience’s eyes. The fact that the paintings disappear at the end of the fest makes their beauty even more appealing.

- Growth does not pay for itself
- Growth that doesn’t pay for itself is cancerous growth. It isn’t the growth of population that gets more expensive, but the expanding grasp of government.
- Business prospect incentives discourage innovation
- Complicating the law and raising taxes, then lowering them for businesses that know how to lobby local or state governments, is not a recipe for encouraging innovation. It is a recipe for killing it.
- Why don’t taxes go down when population goes up?
- The left says that government can better take advantage of economies of scale. So why don’t they lower taxes when population rises?
- Round Rock extends dangerously low speed limits on Highway 79?
- Are accidents along Highway 79 in Round Rock the result of speed limits that are too high, or are they the result of speed limits too far below the 85th percentile?
