At the coast we do and that just happens to be one of my favorite places to play in my truck.

Nice pics, Patman

There was a fountain over here that I wish I had taken a picture of. It is a volcano style fountian and the water was freezing on the outside of it but not the inside. It kept building taller and taller with ice. It was awesome.

I had some slush build up on my truck...

Had to make a run to New Braunfels for an emergency vet visit and somehow those slushcicles survived. The minicicles that were on the edge of my tire didn't make it though. Those looked really cool. They acumulated while I was driving and were pointed out about an inch.

In San Antonio last night over 600 car accidents were reported over the course of the night.

I went home when somebody almost rear ended me while I was slowing down to turn. They got within 50 feet and mashed the brakes. That will cause a slide, duh. So I started to gas it and barely built up enough speed to keep from getting hit. Started a drift to get into the other lane to get out of their way but by then I had built up enough speed. People dont pay attention but I was incredibly suprised at how well my 2wd got around. I think I saw about 4 or 5 4x4 and AWD cars stuck on the side of the road.
