YOU ARE ALL WELCOME!!!

I moved to Alice, Texas in 2004 from Pennsylvania  (GO STEELERS), and it snowed in December, I then moved to Kingsville in 2005, and it snowed in December, well, I moved to Kirbyville, this year (2008), and well you guessed it..It snowed in December...DUmb Luck ?  maybe, Coincidence, maybe....or maybe, it snows down here a lot more than Texans admit....just wondering.

in Liberty we had about 6-8 inches of snow in the yard when i got up to go to work this morning (around 6:30)....on my way to work Liberty to Baytown everything but the roads (thank god) were covered with about 6 inches of snow atleast...it was pretty cool to see...only one wreck that i ran across on the trinity river bridge on 90, some guy had spun out and hit the concrete barrier...no one else was involved and the guy looked fine...

on a side note, glad i dont live in houston itself, it took most people until after lunch to get to baytown for work out here since every major highway was closed cause of a bridge or a wreck to get here..

Dont forget the snow in Galveston was also on Christmas Day.  A White  Christmas on the beach.  My grandparents had the picture on their Christmas cards the next year.
