The Austin Daytripper Is excited to have Patagonia as an underwriter of THE AUSTIN DAYTRIPPER in San Antonio.

Patagonia grew out of a small company that made tools for climbers. Alpinism remains at the heart of a worldwide business that still makes clothes for climbing – as well as for skiing, snowboarding, surfing, fly fishing, paddling and trail running. These are all silent ...sports. None requires a motor; none delivers the cheers of a crowd. In each sport, reward comes in the form of hard-won grace and moments of connection between us and nature. Our values reflect those of a business started by a band of climbers and surfers, and the minimalist style they promoted. The approach we take towards product design demonstrates a bias for simplicity and utility. For us at Patagonia, a love of wild and beautiful places demands participation in the fight to save them, and to help reverse the steep decline in the overall environmental health of our planet. We donate our time, services and at least 1% of our sales to hundreds of grassroots environmental groups all over the world who work to help reverse the tide. We know that our business activity – from lighting stores to dyeing shirts – creates pollution as a by-product. So we work steadily to reduce those harms. We use recycled polyester in many of our clothes and only organic, rather than pesticide-intensive, cotton. Staying true to our core values during thirty-plus years in business has helped us create a company we're proud to run and work for. And our focus on making the best products possible has brought us success in the marketplace.

The Austin Daytripper If you are traveling for the holidays, why not make the drive a day trip. We found this place during the Turkey Day drive. Slap yourself good

Ellinger baby!! Gotta slow down to 55 mph on Hwy 71 to pass through Ellinger, but it is worth it for Hruska's Bakery! Try Peter's BBQ while you are there. Great chopped beef sandwiches and real beef jerky! Awesome prices too!

The best jalapeno and sausage kolaches on the planet. A must stop on any trip up 71 from Houston.

I second Martha on that one! That's some HOT salsa. If you are in the area though, you MUST check out Mana's in San Marcos as well. It was a college staple.

back to the Que...A trip to New Braunfels Cooper's finishes the weekend tour of the greater southeast BBQ roadie very nicely. I know the original in Llano is great. But the Fri-Sat night ribeye or "the big chop" put an exclamation point of a weekend of bbq sampling. Some purists that have sworn off the direct heat style applied may be in for a reawakening. If you have kids, get 'em a rib and tell them they are eating like the Flinstones!
