My roommates and I have started this new routine in an effort to get off our lazy bums. On some nights we go out and take a walk after dinner. One night we noticed a moon light tower on 22nd & Nueces. Later I came back and googled “moonlight towers austin” and realized that they are listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Originally the city of Austin had 31, but now they are down to 17. They are even used to light the huge tree at Trail of Lights in Zilker Park. We found a list of the other standing towers and bought some ice cream ( I know, I know counter-active to being healthy but you can substitute the ice cream for yogurt) and headed to two others in downtown. So for a relaxing outdoor activity check out the moonlight towers for only the cost of the snack of your choice!

You can get TCBY b/c it’s yogurt but it tastes like ice cream b/c it’s frozen. That would be cool to eat frozen yogurt at the top of one of the moon towers!
Sweet!

That ice cream was delicious. I hope more of our outdoor adventures include this tasty dessert!
