As some of my longer-term readers may recall, I lived 5 years in Kenya, East Africa.
During my last two years there, I had a very challenging role in administration. One day I took on a different assignment – photographer. I visited a facility run by the Kenyan organization we partnered with – the Ruiru Centre. My photos were to be used for publicity purposes. (I’m not sure if they were ever used.)
That day was a nice break.
Back in 2001 Jerry Jones invited my organization to a blow-out at the late Cowboys Stadium. I went as photographer, since I was working evenings at the time. (Unfortunately it meant I couldn’t drink any beer.) There was an incredible buffet, a band, cheerleaders and players for pics and autographs, a rock-climbing tower, etc. Don’t know what ever happened to the pics. I didn’t know what to do with them, and eventually gave them to a coworker who said he would distribute them.
Blow-out as in party, not implosion.
Sounds like it was fun. Or at least it created a set of strong memories to last a while!
