| We
woke up
this morning to a horrible sight. What a Valentine's Day (and it's our
7th Wedding Anniversary, too). Justine said she felt like she woke up
in
the Twilight Zone.
TWO inches of
snow overnight!!! And
right here in Central Texas!!! The livestock was horrified!! The cows
and
goats had the weirdest look on their faces... They'd never seen snow
before.
Austin, the 300 pound sheep just laid down in it. This is the most snow
we've had in almost 15 years!!! I grabbed the digital camera and
took almost 3 disks full of photos (about 50) although I'm restricted
to
taking pictures from the wheelchair out of the front and back
doors.
I'm posting the 30 best pictures on the website. I took some
photos
at 8AM, then some more later as the snow was melting. It was ALL
gone by noon.
