A little behind, but the other weekend I spent time in Philadelphia for a family wedding. I haven't been to Philly in probably 2 decades, but the city still is a pleasure. Beautiful architecture and street art abounds, with wonderfully walkable streets. Wish I could've spent more time in the city, but wedding was the reason I was there. Still, I enjoy the photos I took on my nice 2 hour walk on my last day.

Before the rides open up, when everyone is at the beach, old arcades in Ocean City, NJ can have a downright magical feel of the potential. While also a haven from the hot sun.

I've made it very clear that I adore the , and highly recommend it if you're in Austin. Well, they got a new food truck , and I was happy to get to give them a try today.

This is their street taco plate, and to say I was excited is an understatement. When you live in Texas, you know what good street tacos are, and these are a great representation of what they should be. The plate comes with (from left to right here, I believe) birria, barbacoa, campechano, suadero, and pastor. All for under $15 is pretty good, and so damn tasty and filling.

I look forward to trying more of their menu in the future, but knowing I can now get street tacos at one of my favorite bars is too good not to share.

Even in the heart of Autumn, Austin stays ridiculously green. We've had some really up and down temperatures this month, but when the sun is out, you feel like it's Spring. Getting to see downtown from even a few stories up remains a treat.

I'm behind on postinf, but I'm right now attending and covering .fest again. Right now though is a quieter morning at with an iced chai and . This place is always a nice refuge from the festival for those of us that know what is down the street. Tip the lovely staff well if you come.

It's still humid as hell here in Austin, so gotta love a nice iced beverage in the morning. What's your morning pick me up of choice?

I'll admit, capturing a location on film is when I feel I've most captured its vibe. I get people digital is just as good, and I do love digital photography, but I just find the pacing and the grain of film shooting captures some of the soul. And these are my daytime shots of Ocean City. NJ.

I shot these on my grandfather's Konica Autoreflex TC shot at 28mm on Flic Film Elektra film shot at ISO 200. I so love the colors it captured, both so vibrant, and so nostalgic. The skies really were that blue on lovely 83° F days as you take in lovely sea air and the small town comfort. The history and classic vibes will always be how I always feel connected to classic Americana more than anywhere else in my life.

Have you ever been to Ocean City? Or any other boardwalks I should check out to compare it to?
