2004: Dallas winter meetings, 1st cruise/Dad, Kauai/Tim&Faith, K-state graduation, Oregon, Grad cruise/Angie,

 Prestige Winter Meetings.  This year they were in Dallas, Tx.  I had never been to Dallas, so decided to see if I could go.  And I did.  Although most of the break outs didn't apply to me as a permanent part time employee, I did enjoy running around with the everyone, and even getting to go see a few sites.  Like the Grassy Knoll.

 and interesting architecture.

 Feb. 1---Dad and I went on our 1st ever cruise.  Not quite what we expected!

 He ended up in a hospital in Ft. Lauderdale fighting for his life shortly after this photo was taken---as he calls it, he attempted drowning.

 Fortunately he recovered in the hospital over 5 or 6 days and it ended up having a happy ending.  More of that trip HERE

 March----We took our annual trip to the Hawaiian islands.  This time just to Kauai.  It was our 3rd Kauai trip, Dad's 2nd, and Tim and Faith's 1st. 

 I think they loved it as much as we do.

 This doesn't show how rainy it was during their trip.  And cold.  For more of that trip, click HERE
