I also needed to know, does dallas have a time of year that lots of people either visit or have 2nd homes?...like in Florida where lots of people go in the winter time?

Or is it just the same locals year round with not many tourists? I cant think of any reason why Dallas would have bunches of tourists coming down?

Along w/ football and the State Fair we have some pretty big conventions that do come to Dallas. The National Homebuilders were here for a few years (might still be as I don't keep up). On alternating years w/ Houston we host the Southwest Food Expo at the Dallas Convention Center (takes up the entire convention center). There is a BIG cheerleading competition every year here as well (surprise). We get plenty of tourists just not at a set time in the year.

Don't forget about the Mary Kay ladies - I think they cycle in/out during the month of July.

Make up. A line of make-up by Mary Kay Ash who grew up and lived in Dallas. She has a whole book and all about her story - rags to riches. She is dearly departed now but the line is still going strong. The highest earners in her company all used to receive Pink Cadillac's. There annual convention is here in Dallas as is their headquarters.

Or try - Cosmetics: Makeup and Cosmetics by Mary Kay

Although I can't imagine a hooker doesn't know about make-up.
