Boot-Scootin' in Austin

No Merry Texas Honeymoon Ramble would be complete without a stop at a real honky-tonk for two-steppin'.  For authentic Texas dancin' in Austin, there's no better place than the Broken Spoke.


Since 1964, James White has been entertaining locals and tourists alike with Texas country and two-steppin'.  We decided that would be the best place for us to get some authentic dancin' in!



We struggled through the dance lessons, finding our pace once we dropped an extra step in our count.  The rest of the night was dance, dance, dance to the live music of the Bastard Sons of Johnny Cash.



In anticipation of more dancing in our future, we went out in search of Texas-made dancin' shoes…and hit the jackpot at Allen's Boots on South Congress.
