SXSW 2023

Took the train downtown to check out the SXSW scene. Didn’t seem as vibrant as other years, but still fun. Had lunch at the Iron Works BBQ. Helped an out of towner behind us in line ordering. He joined us for lunch. A Brazilian Israeli founder of a tech outsourcing company. Went to meet up with some old friends from Japan. Good to see them after all these years. They even brought us some SXSW swag. Went to have a drink at the Four Seasons and saw a guy who looked like Bill Walton in the lobby bar. Seems it was him. He had just come from the opening of the new ESPN documentary on his life and career. Had some salsa and queso and listened to a band sound check for the upcoming Grammy party. A good day.
