Ceremony for the Memorial Day in Austin

The traditional Memorial Day ceremonies seem to have fallen from the landscape of America, but in Texas, we hold our traditions close to the heart and there are a couple of nearby towns doing it upright! Pflugerville is home to its annual Memorial Day Celebration, taking place on May 30th from 11 AM until noon at Cook-Walden/Capital Parks Funeral Home & Cemetery, located at 14501 N Interstate Hwy 35 in the Texas Liberty Section of the Cemetery. For those who appreciate choices, the Memorial Day Service in nearby Lakeway (Emmaus Catholic Church
1718 Lohmans Crossing Road) starts at 10 AM (a little earlier) and gives guests another way to pay homage to those who sacrificed everything for the freedoms we enjoy today and every day.

As Easter grows closer, you may be planning your next traveling adventure even as this is not typically a holiday during which people travel. But as we are all still trying to make up for lost time, getting away seems to be our latest obsession. Easter is held on April 17th this year and as the promise of spring grows closer to the rewards of summer, Austin begins to enjoy some of its best weather of the year. Warm enough to leave the coats behind and let the sun shine down on winter pale faces, but dry enough that the humidity doesn’t overwhelm and if you are planning to enjoy an Easter celebration in our favorite place on earth, it only makes sense to spend it in our favorite properties on earth, our Austin vacation rentals. This guide to your upcoming Easter in Austin, TX, adventures and the comforts offered by our home will give you a sneak peek into the best vacation you will ever take!
