Nope, nothing on our side of town or most of the town.


The VERY far north-side of town that's basically the foothills of the hill country I think got a very, very light dusting but absolutely nothing but ice pellets that day for us. I even stayed up late that day. Very disappointing

Yay!

Rhubarb
. I absolutely love rhubarb. I used to eat it all the time at my uncle's farm in Dinsmore.
Oh believe me, I wasn't shoving by hand, I put the tractor to work for several hours to move the drifts to heaps.

Well, dang, showing my age with the phrase 'hit the rhubarb' - it has nothing to do with the fruit but with hitting ditches.

I like snow until mid-January then it can go away not to return until the holidays.

Last February, we had record snowfall and it was awful. There was talk that the cities were running out of road salt.

Give me spring and summer anytime...winter can take a hike.

Same here. I HATE the snow and can't stand winter.
Today was gorgeous though, felt like sping. It was 15 degrees celcius.

we have just a little snow. Last night we had freezing rain. The drive to the city this morning was a little scary. I will take snow any day over freezing rain. I love the snow and winter. I just wish our winter was a little shorter,

Trapped in the catroom! ;o)
No snow here but I like snow to look at...to be outside in or drive in..nope cant stand it hate it and hate other drivers with a passion. Unfortunately now this year if there is big snowstorms over night we will get the buttcrack of early phone call for me to drive BF to work so he can help plow businesses out...He gets to man the shovel..one of those perks of being license-less.

None here yet, thank goodness. Actually, our weather has been above normal temps, into the 60s! It's been just gorgeous and we've taken advantage to get lots of outside work done. This week, we're going back down to below normal temperatures.

The snow is coming, but it can take its good ol' time, as far as I'm concerned. I don't like driving in it and I don't like being cold.
