Snowing in Texas!

Recommended Posts

It's sleeting pretty good here now. We did our Easter egg hunt in the house today, and I'm putting my hat and Easter dress back in the closet.:(

This is going to be the first year of my life that I will be wearing a sweater on Easter Sunday:S


....and Man I wish Walt could see those pics of our DZ covered in snow.

So I guess you didn't do any CReW today huh?;)



It was waaay freakin ccccold here in ATL..so I decided to volunteer at the hospice but Chris jumped at Skydive Atlanta today, flying camera for tandems...he said is was sooo cccold up there his fingers were cccold and stiff..

It's usually 30 degrees colder at alti than on the ground...so that made it zero or colder this morning...and maybe 18 degrees this afternoon...brrrrrrrrrrr....

I'm a fair weather jumper...I'll just wait until the temps are comfortable.:D

My wife said it was snowing in Manhattan on friday morning when she was going to work. It's crazy! I am so ready for some good 70 spring weather.
If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck!

This is great...for the first time ever I'm not in the snow area. Normally I'm one of the people complaining about the snow because I live just north of Pittsburgh and we get alot. But when I left Monday it was sunny and 60...here in Okinawa it's been in the 60's or 70's. Man did I take a vacation at the right time. :ph34r::ph34r::ph34r::ph34r:

See, Kathleen... Today would have been a PERFECT day for you to come up to Skydive Temple. We could have built a snow-skydiver!! ;)

I can't believe it - I'm living in Central Texas and it has been snowing like a blizzard all afternoon here! Its insane! The poor dz dog doesn't know what to think, and we have fields of bluebonnets getting covered in snow..
What the &&(@(*?



Nothing quite so exciting a couple more hours south. Just rain, and rain and more rain down here in Victoria. We were still flooded out from the last batch of rain. Up come the rivers again!

Yeah, but that was when I was trying to get you to marry me. Haven't you learned by now not to trust anything a man says when he's trying to get laid? :P



I'm still young and naive. Well now I'll have to rethink men as well as Texas.
Relax, you can die if you mess up, but it will probably not be by bullet.

I'm a BIG, TOUGH BIGWAY FORMATION SKYDIVER! What are you?

If this becomes a regular habit of Texas, I'm not moving out there. :P

I wouldn't worry too much about that, just a freak cold snap. It was 85 degrees and humid as hell in Jarrell on Monday. B|
