01/16/07

I know it isn't a lot of snow, but for this part of Texas it is a rare treat...
However, I am under strict orders not to venture out of the house. Under the
dusting of snow is a layer of very slick ice. No one can get up or down the hill
to my home....so best to stay put and not break something!

I even saw some robins and hope they come close enough to the porch so I can get a photo.

Good advice to you Petesie. Ice is a real bad hazard for everyone. It will warm up a little in a couple of days. Oh BTW nice snow shot.

Stay put, Petesie. My husband slipped on the ice and really went down (here in Phoenix) yesterday. He wasn't expecting ice.

Girl, if it's snow you want...I'd gladly send you the 4 feet that are in my yard!!! I'm glad you are enjoying it. This is a lovely image.

Very smart to not take a chance on the ice. Good to see this photo and enjoy snow "in the south" for a change.
