Dane's departure

August 16, a BIG day in the Yorba Linda Hoban house. Dane was packed up and ready to go. First stop at nan & Papa Tom's for breakfast and goodbyes. Tom give Dane some fatherly college advice "Don't do anything I wouldn't do" Just kidding.....l Dad, Dane & Mom

Papa Tom, Dane & Nan..............

The Hoban's with the newest nephew Tibor, really Dane told his mom "here's s new one for you to use as a substitute"

Dane & Tibor, when he comes back for Thanksgiving they will have both changed so much.

Off to the plane, on to the new dorm room. Meet Dane's room mate Vince. He comes from Granite Bay in Northern Cal, speaks french, plays the trombone in the SMU band & is enrolled in the engineering program.

Here's some shots of Dane in his new room, for those of you who went away to college this looks like your old room. ...

Some space to hang out & watch football....

The cold spot....

So the parental units got him all moved in & registered. Dane is taking french, film, physiology, (3rd quarter)econ & scuba. Dane & Vince are in the Hilltop Scholar Dorm. I hope it's not a long walk to classes. Now, after 3 days, it's time for mom & dad to go home (I remember that day, cried all the way home)


so one last goodbye........ they are very proud of their young man, now hes on his own walk through this world.

See you in November Dane, can't wait to hear all the stories.
