Arrival Day in Dallas

Hello again!


Well, we really had no problems with our flight here, picked up a rental car, and drove to our temporary housing (a 661 sq. ft. apartment).


When we got to the apartment at around noon, we found the lock box that had our key fob to open the front gate/door and the key to our apartment.


Only one small problem, the key fob did'nt work and so we could'nt get in to even try the key to the apartment.






After several phone calls, we sat and waited (in the shade) on the front step of the apartment building for some help to arrive.  It was only 96 degrees F. and we were getting quite hot - jeans sticking to our knees, sweat rolling down, and the "hair do" a muck (Kevin's too - he was really having trouble with his "bangs").


After 2 hours of waiting, a tenant let us in the building!!!  Luckily the key to the apartment worked!!!  Inside the apartment were more key fobs that worked to get us in the gate/door, parkade, etc.  All was well.


PS - We later found out that our mail box keys did not work either which have since been replaced.  Hoish!!!


Thank goodness Day 1 was almost over!!!
