Trip to Austin Texas for Robotic Surgery. Had some free time. Ate Texas Barbecue at "Salt Lick". Oh, also drove this INCREDIBLE machine-Tesla S. My rep wanted to do it. I just tagged along! Really!

Night falls in Vail Village. Gore creek runs right through the middle. Gas fireplace and lighted ice sculptures, before and after dark. Lights and shops at night like a fairyland.

Two restaurants--"BOL"-contemporary with extreme skiing on 5 screens; "Bully Ranch"-bison burgers...mmmm....

Vail at night-lights and snow.
