Circle of Life/Weather

I spent quite a bit of time writing about winter in the Mid-west. Lots of snow talk, fascination with the temperature gauge and coming up with interesting ways to pass the time when it's colder than God ever intended me to be exposed to.





Lo' and behold (a little Christmas talk...lo)...it stinking snowed here last week. Talk about a swift kick in the you-know-what. It was cold and the stuff fell from the sky.

Now to the credit of all who live north of the Red River...it wasn't snow that you could do anything with other than take it's picture. But it was white, it stuck to the car, the roof, the picnic table and your hair. I've included some pictures of what it looked like here. You have to look really close to see it...but it's there.


That little bit of home-sickness I had earlier this month when Chicago had their first real snow of the season. Thanks arctic cold-front for making me appreciate the crazy weather we can have here in SETX. Within 48 hrs of the snow it was 60 degrees.
