First Outing in Dallas

This past Saturday we decided to see what Dallas had to offer. There are tons of free things to do here, so we decided to start there; we'll work our way up to the paying venues later.

We also called up our old friends, the Packers, from BYU 1st Ward to enjoy the day with us. We always enjoy spending time with friends from the past (although technically, since the Packers live here, they are now friends from the current).










The kids at Whiterock Lake Park in Dallas. We stopped here first to have a picnic lunch.










Next we went to Uptown to ride the free trolley. Uptown uses 4 fully restored vintage trolleys from the early 1900s.










Our friends, the Packers: Trulee, Matt, and Samantha










The family.










We rode the trolley to the Dallas Museum of Art to view the Crow Collection of Asian Art. My favorite was a series of photos from Ka Yeung, a Chinese photographer.

Best part of the day was that I think Jenny started to like Dallas a tad bit more. It's a slow work in progress, but someday she will like this town.
