Snow and Ice Closes Dallas Down!
February 23, 2015
Not like the snow storms on the East Coast or Snowmageddon 2015, but half an inch of snow closed down Dallas and
brought a little bit excitement to all. Mozart had to rush out
and make some snowballs. I grew up in Michigan and lived in NYC, so I've seen my share of snowstorms, but
NEVER saw such a little bit close down everything. Schools are closed, offices are closed.
I guess everyone is out making snowmen!
Or cleaning off the snow on their cars.
Dallas has no snow machines to clear the roads since snow is a rarity here. I've read they don't use salt because the cars here are not protected from it. Roads are a hazard now.
So a little bit of snow, topped with sleet and cold temps brings everything to a halt in a place where we were just wearing shorts about a week ago! It will melt soon. Who is ready for Spring?

Ugh! I was there for that! Got out after the ice storm, then got stuck in Amarillo for more snow. So ready for spring. At least we upgraded the travel trailer to a newer, more comfy one.
Stay warm and dry and enjoy Mozart's activities;)
