This is at our house right now and the sleet is still coming down. IT IS NOT SNOW ALL ICE!! It is crazy I am so ready for spring/summer. And of course no one in Texas knows how to drive in it. I know what you all have up north is much worse but for Texas this is rare.Chris & Christy

Loks like a good time to do donuts in the circle in front of your house, assuming you can make it from the garage in back around to the front!

We got about 6+ inches of that stuff in a county near here (a week ago). I parked my Audi on top of it and that car only sunk about 1/2 inch!!

My new wife is in Dallas (Rockwall). Everything there has been shut down by the ice storm. It hit me here in KY the weekend before. We were married February 17 in Las Vegas. I was very lucky to even make it out there. Drove from Lexington to Louisville the evening of the 15th, just as the ice storm started... Watched the police and emergency crew lights all night from my hotel window. 24 car pile up in Louisville that included *2* salt trucks! My flight was supposed to leave at 6am on the 16th. 3 airlines and 12 hours later I flew out non-stop to Vegas...Whew!

We got aboout 2" of Sleet & Freezing rain Monday night. It was actually not too bad, nice to look at anyway. I guess working at home does have it's benefits. Thawing out nicely today though. Would much rather be on the ship!

Mike - you must have a real case of cabin fever to come up with this stuff!

Paul, I saw the film of people in TX driving, why even bother to go out. I work at home too. Bob

Marty, I got tired chasing dust balls around the house (they are faster than they used to be) so I thought I would chill out with some rock and roll.

Good idea, Mike. I think when I get home from work later tonight I will pull out your 2001 Woodward videa and listen to some great rock & roll while enjoying the video!

Marty, I'm going to grab the Deadwood/Crazyhorse video and revisit a great summertime trip! I can see Mohawk Moneyhan on the Goldwing already.
