 Perhaps the best expenditure of your family dollars in Austin can be found in a purchase of some tickets on the Hill Country Flyer. This is the only Steam Train found in the Austin area and the trip is well worth the ticket price. There is nothing else in the Austin area that can compare to it, Perhaps even the Roller Girl extravaganza... perhaps. The train rides along tracks constructed in 1871 on a line that at one time extended all the way to Llano and runs Saturdays and Sundays from northwest Austin to Burnet, Texas and back during the same day from March through December. The trains leave Cedar Park at 10am and return at approximately 4:30 pm. |

The boy is suffering from a rare bone disease and the insurance company won't cover the "preexisting condition," hence the benefit.
