Hi Martin, Hey, remember your talking about Houston! Some areas of Texas do get a LOT of snow and/or ice. <grin> I used to live in one!

Here in Texas we do good to even see snow once in five to ten years. We are still using leaf blowers all through the "winter" months here. Last night's low was 36. Today's high was 55. The predicted low for tonight is 35. Some  time we have a touch of winter when there is some ice and snow for a while. But people here are not used to very much of such nasty weather so what happens is that everyone plays bumper cars until it is over. All our emergency services get overworked. One must make it a point to remember to slow down and drive carefully. I renew my prayer for the Lord's protection every 12 hours regardless of what the weather might be. Happy snow blowing and/or shoveling, Martin Wisenbaker, RPT Houston,  Texas </blockquote></div>
