LETTER FROM THE EDITOR:

ow many of today's dreary careers are sustained and made bearable at odd moments during the grinding workaday by happy memories of childhood visits to the lake, the sea, or the pine-scented mountains... or the world's largest myth-making factory?

Unless it's shopping and dining you're after, the best thing to do in Texas is keep going west, to places like Big Bend National Park, the Hill Country west of Austin, and the wide-open cattle country around Amarillo.

It may be too hot to cook, it's not too hot to read about food, and some members of the Austin Chronicle staff serve up some delicious summer memories, à la carte.
