Not global warming......it's called climate change now.

It would be lucky if we only got 7 inches in one day, the way the past week has been going. I suppose you guys aren't used to it though. For some reason I'm really liking that first pic.

Yes, Geico pushed automotive transportation during those times. Gas was abundant and emissions wasn't even on their minds.

This is record snowfall here, it just doesn't happen. The parking lot at Lockheed (Ft. Worth) was one giant slushpile about 6" deep. That was really nice to walk through to get to the van.

I wish y'all would keep that crap down there, too bad the weather man says otherwise. We already have 6"+ on the ground and I am tired of it.

Night pics. Still snowing. Looks to be about 8" deep in places now. I had to knock some snow off my Live oak in the front yard. The tree looks like it's going to fall apart.



Neighbor's houses.




My sad tree.


Weeping bushes.

How long you been in Stephenville? I went to Tarleton for 5 years, I graduated about 2 years ago.

BTW we got about 10 to 12" here in Graham, they were predicting 5" this morning.

Twenty inches here on the west side of Clevland, which is normally a good amount, but what you folks in the Delmarva area received was way more than we even like to think about.

This is my back yard before the snow really hit:

I've only been here since August '09. This is my second semester at TSU. I think I've talked with you before - about Coach Burress who came from Graham to Eastland.
