    Guys,

    I'm heading your way in about a week - I'll only have a few days - flying in for a one-hour meeting.

    Anything I must do/see/eat?

    Thanks in advance for suggestions.

    Erik

    He has a long driveway with little cover or concealment.
    You'll have to wear your Ninja suit.

    PS; The Dallas thing; something about JFK's visit. I'll think of it...

    The Sixth Floor Museum. Be advised they don't allow cameras.

    Dallas has good art museums. The Nasher Sculpture center is supposed to be good. Its been a while since I've been and I'm not that interested in art but if you are, you might want to look into stopping by a couple art museums in downtown.
    I recommend the Texas museum of automotive history. They have a 275 GTB and a muira. I've seen both and they are cool looking cars. I'm not sure what other cool cars they have since I haven't been. (it's a long story of how I've seen the muira and 275 without going to the museum).
    Everything else mentioned are all great places to go. You just need to figure out what you want to do and see.
