Don't Miss Honky Tonk Fest
Plus honoring vets and events worth the drive

Today’s current water level: 80.8%
From the Skies to the Hills. Around the Lake Travis area, a few neighbors carry stories that stretch far beyond these hills - like Col. Jack Crownover, a retired U.S. Air Force pilot and Vietnam veteran. After flying combat missions overseas, he came home to build community here in Lake Travis, helping fellow veterans reconnect through Honor Flight Austin and keeping their stories alive for the next generation.
In a place better known for its sunsets than its uniforms, neighbors like him remind us that service isn’t something left behind, it’s something carried forward.
Here’s what’s happening this week as we honor those who served.
