It is Christmas time in Austin and 6th Street is decked out in holiday cheer.
The nights are cold but the bars are warm refuges for all kinds of characters. Whether you are coming in to get a drink, take a break or find a friend, Ralph, the bartender will welcome you with a nod and sage advice.
Just remember that the front door opens for anyone, so welcome into Temptation, you never know whom you will meet.
