The Dallas/Fort Worth area had a record-breaking 11+ inches of snow yesterday.
I've probably seen about 10 or more rudimentary-looking snowmen on the front yards in my neighborhood. The stuff is amazing to look at, but it wreaks havoc when you have to drive in it. I was driving on Loop 820 today and people were actually playing in the snow with sleds on the side of the freeway.

I'm loving it. But then, I live in the Adirondack Mountains and we expect this stuff. I have snow shoes, studded snow tires, and 4WD. And every dinky little town has plows and salters.

I am over it. In the 20 something years I lived in Louisiana it snowed once. Since we moved here 9 years ago, we have had snow maybe twice per year. This is the 4th so far this year. Over it.
Although I must admit the view out my back door was breathtaking this morning. We live on almost 6 acres, the back is heavily wooded with a creek. It looked like a post card of somewhere far, far north of here! So pretty, but I am still over it! :)
