Snow Day in Dallas....

We had our snow day for the year in Dallas today. I know for a lot of you this is kind of silly (especially if you live in Chicago) but we normally only get snow once or twice a year so we all run out with our cameras and snap away.

Great to have snow in the DFW area. I used to live in GP and one or 2 days of snow a year was enough for me. Looks like you may have had about an inch or two.

May wind up over 5".... Over 500 wrecks in Dallas alone so far. All things being equal, I'd just as soon be in Hollywood (FL) with an old friend!

Nice little dusting. Is that some snickering I hear from the direction of Boston? :D

Good example of our global warming. Yeah, right.

I am not surprised. I used to live in Dallas for 5 years and most places in the country, they teach one to drive 'defensively'. TX is the only place where the drivers drive 'offensively' and even with ice and snow on the ground. HELP!!!!
Come to think of it, it is just as bad in the Miami area, also.

The wife and I almost got hit while looking for the University of BC this past summer, but otherwise we'll loved the city and plan to return.
Stay out of Philadelphia while driving, also.
