--- Ah, Hippie Hollow.
My sister and brother and their respective families live on Lake
Travis, so I'm pretty familiar with the area they're talking about.
I've been visiting Travis since I was ten years old and ultimately it's
where I would like to spend the rest of my days. It's gorgeous there.
(If you'd like to see what some of the area looks like, click here
and take a peek around. That's my sister and brother in law's company.)
Travis is a huge man made lake---it was created by damming off the
eastern branch of the Colorado river--- but because of the hilly
terrain in the area, there isn't a huge amount of beach area. In most
spots on Travis, you jump in and the bottom is sixty-five feet straight
down. You never touch. The terrain creates negative odds on there being
beaches at all, but Hippie Hollow is one of the few. So, not only is it
noteworthy to float by a beach on Travis, the fact one of the few is a
nudist beach makes it all the more interesting.
We've boated by Hippie Hollow, and I can testify that it is quite the
scene. Perhaps my nephew put it best when, at age five, he screamed, "MOMMY! MOMMY! Why is that man standing over there with his wiener hanging out?"
