UPDATE: New link… I guess charges were dropped

I mean the name of the blog is the Steiner Ranch Information Blog… right?

This news from the great grandson of the namesake of the neighborhood.

Some history about T.C. Steiner I never knew:

Steiner’s great-grandfather, T.C. “Buck” Steiner, has his own wing in the Rodeo Hall of Fame and was an Old West-style cowboy who drank with Pancho Villa and hung out with Al Capone. He used the money he earned riding bulls to open Austin’s Capitol Saddlery on Lavaca Street in the 1930s and buy thousands of acres, including the 5,300-acre Steiner Ranch along Lake Austin, much of which is now a subdivision.
