Spring Break In The 90’s
My spring break my senior year of high school was so exciting! I can still remember so much about that trip, even though it was over 30 years ago! Three of my girlfriends and I were going to Dallas for spring break! You might think, wow, you only went to Dallas? Yes, wow, we got to go to Dallas! We were from a tiny small town in Kansas of about two thousand people. We all played volleyball together for our high school so we had left the county to go play other schools but other than that we really hadn’t left our small town. One of the girl’s aunts lived in Dallas and we were going to drive there all by ourselves and stay two nights with her. I literally remember crossing the Red River and seeing the sign saying Welcome To Texas and the big flag with the Texas Star flying!
