Record Snow at the Farm

The following photos are in pairs, with the first taken on Thursday, 11 Feb 10, and the next the following morning, when we were all snowed-in under a foot deep blanket.

Thursday was my mother's birthday and the single largest one-day snowfall in North Texas history. The paper says: "The 11.2 inches that fell Thursday shattered the record for snowfall in one day (7.8 inches in 1917 and 1964). The 12.5 inches that fell by 4 a.m. Friday also broke the 24-hour record of 12.1 inches on Jan. 15-16, 1964."












The wintry weather made for some beautiful scenes at the farm...






but this is where you wanted to be!
