burn down the mission

i felt a little tinge of nostalgia tonight… i saw on a program that i’d tivo’d on wednesday that the oasis restaurant on lake travis near austin had burned down. normally this would not affect me more than a general “gee, that sucks,” but i have actually been there so it was a little surprising to see it in flames on tv. my boyfriend at the time took me to austin for my 21st birthday, and we had drinks at the oasis while watching the sun set over lake travis. all i really remember about it is that the sunset was rather nice, and they had a photo booth inside the restaurant.
