Snow Holiday February 4, 2011

Preparing for the cold!

Not a whole lot of snow by most of the country's standards, Dallas' first-week-of-February storm still shut down schools and businesses for several days. The worst part was the ice - because we're not used to this kind of weather, the city doesn't have fleets of snow plows on standby, and salt isn't stocked to treat the roads. As a result, the streets were an absolute mess. Luckily, we were able to stay home on Tuesday and Friday (the worst weather days), and on Friday we decided to brave the elements and take to the streets. Well, to the sidewalks around the neighborhood, at least.

  1. I bet it's strange coming from Ohio where things hardly ever close due to inclement weather. You guys have some cute cold weather outfits - they don't look to warm, though. Let me know if you want me to expedite the sending of your hot pink snow pants and questionably matching marshmallow jacket!
