In reply to Earnie Painter. I miss the deep snow sometimes. I grew up with it in Illinois. Sometimes we have it here, about once a decade. Considering how people drive, I guess it is best we don't have it more often. Look forward to seeing more of your work!

In reply to Elizabeth. I am glad we only got down into the +single digits. Snow fell near us in inches but we got a dusting again. Dodged it again. I am getting a mini vacation to vegas next week. Bowling tournament. Then back to the grind for a few more months. Enjoy you time away!

I got some snow you all can have. And it was -4F on my way to work yesterday. Ugh, January.

On a bright side, I scheduled a mini-vacation for the family in February. My job doesn’t let us do more, so I guess we’ll see how much fun an indoor water park is!

When I was growing up around Amarillo we had snow. Here in Central Texas, that doesn’t happen but once in a blue moon. But, I know the snow drifts you wrote about. The Panhandle has no hills, mountains or trees. The wind blows and blows and makes hills of snow. I remember very cold feet and ears. Tassel caps were a thing. Coming in from the snow and sitting by the radiator, our skin would hurt as it thawed out.

Yeah, those were the good old days. They can stay in the past. I’m done with that kind of cold. 😀
