Just to break the Hurricane Ike thread cycle and throw up some history -
I have been to the Capitol before but my wifes uncle is a Lobbiest and gave us a really awesome tour of the capitol today and it was just amazing. I took many pictures but just wanted to throw a few on here.
I asked him how long it would take to get nailed if I pulled out an MD, He said I would be tackled before I shut the truck door.
The Texas State Capitol, located in Austin, Texas, is the fourth building to serve as the seat of Texas government. It houses the chambers of the Texas State Legislature and the office of the Governor of Texas. Originally designed by Elijah E. Myers, it was constructed from 1882–88 under the direction of civil engineer Lindsay Walker, and a $75 million underground extension was completed in 1993. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1970 and recognized as a National Historic Landmark in 1986. It is the largest State Capitol building, but smaller than the National Capitol in Washington, D.C.[1]
