At the end of December my boss announced that he was being promoted and transferred to Ford in the Philippines. His replacement had not (and still has not) yet been named, so he asked me to fill in for him, and accompany 5 of our dealers on an incentive trip to Dearborn, Michigan. I was able to come a couple of days early to meet all of my siblings in Kansas City for a birthday celebration for my Dad's 60th birthday. It was good to be able to be with everyone for those couple of days - I had thought I was going to have to miss the big event.
