Pic Of The Day - 12.29.14 - Let It Snow

It's not very often that we get snow and/or ice here in Houston. Don't get me wrong, it has happened and it is quite the novelty.

Anywho...I purchased these battery operated snow flakes a few weeks ago and decided to decorate my work space. It is not approved by our facilities department but oh, well!

The snow flakes change colour.

Let It Snow

It was very cold today and it was very wet. I could feel the temperature dropping and around 5:00p.m. I was outside taking care of a task at work and it started to sleet; nothing major I tell ya.

Then as I was leaving around 6:00p.m. there were actually big snow flakes. The snow continued to fall until around 9:00p.m. or so. The Calvinator was loving being out in the chilly weather. I on the other looked like Nanook Of The North. You see...

I think I'm coming down with a cold.

Tonight I heard someone say, "I moved to Houston to get away from the snow. The only crystals I want to see are salt crystals around the rim of my Margarita glass."

So here are some photos of the shotgun houses at Project Row Houses. I tried to do some artsy photos from inside The Cal Mobile. Also, when I was out with The Calvinator I took some photos of some big snow flake decorations.

I have lived in Houston for 16 years and have only seen it snow a few times. However, I have never seen it snow before the Winter Solstice.
