I did not however, venture into the snow. Its dark and cold. Excuse the overly bright lights, thats what happens when I use a long shutter speed to take pictures at night (its 10 pm). I need to figure out how to change that...

Beautiful pics Houston! We love when it snows here! We have a bay window and we love to sit with our cocoa and watch the snow fall! Here is the pic i have of last years huge storm that gave us two and half feet of snow! The snow was so bad that a plow truck got stuck on our street and was watching him slowly side towards my car!:eek::eek: Thankfully he got controll and moved on without plowing the street. This pic was taken only about 3 hours into the storm! It was freezing out there!:scared5:

Oh I LOVE Bay windows. They really are the best :D. I sure hope we dont get a storm like that before Christmas :0!!!!

Watching him slide towards your car, I would have been freaking out. That would have done some damage!

I was freaking out bad! I was watching him like a hawk staring at food! He knew i was watching too! LOL! I watched him try and try but no such luck. Finally he backed up and got a little speed with out the plow being down. And he actually waved at me! Like he could miss me in the window! I was like an old garfield suction cup figure! LOL! At least he waved as if to say its ok. And i nicely waved back. After me and lyn got some cocoa and sat in the window and watched the snow just pile up. Two days after the storm lyn had the car finally dug out and guess what happened? The city plowed me in! I had ice as high up on my car as the middle of the drivers window! Both me and Lyn are disabled. So I ended up calling the city to complain. They ended up sending out the fire department to dig the car out for me. I watched these men take chunks of this ice and just throw it behind the car. I ended up with a small spot that when i tried to park it took a couple of tries! LOL! It was a really tight fight. If i was off by a hair i wasn't getting the car parked! LOL! How deep is your snow?

Wahaha, garfield suction cup, nice visual :D
It sure was nice of them to send someone to dig your car out (quite literally lol) I dont know if they would do that in to many places!

Its about 4am now (about to go to bed... lol) and I just looked. Its been going on and off all night and its about 4-5 inches right now. I should just stay up, because I want to go out in the morning and take pictures when its still nice and fresh and before it starts to melt. Though there is bound to be more... I dont know what my rush is lol.

Beautiful snow and we are being predicted to have our first on Friday so just watching what happens. Nice to look at but makes for a lot more work I am thinking!
