Title: Snow Day 2008
Post by: Ken. on January 17, 2008, 10:52:20 AM
OK… OK… so I know that too some of you the subject line and the picture below are not a big deal, but here in Tobaccoville it IS a BIG DEAL!!! 

This is our first real snow of the 07/08 season so we thought you might like to see a picture.


Tobaccoville 4:30AM… if you look carefully you can see Jake in the window, he wouldn’t come out, wonder why???

This 'snow' phenomena you speak of, is this a naturally-occurring event? Does it accompany cold weather or otherwise indicate a season?

I heard rumors of such things as 'snow' here in Louisiana...  8)

We got a small dusting here in Terre Haute In. this morning. Suppose to be more Friday night.  I hope so.  Want to put skies on my R/C plane and fly off of the snow.  Have not had a chance this year...  Had one good snow so far... about 5" but it was to windy to fly.... ARRGGG....

On XP/Vista its stand alone... works a lot like PS and while its not as powerful as PS it can do a lot of the same photo editing and the cost is right... $free!

You guys don't even know what snow is....

We have a saying here on our license plates, "The Greatest Snow on Earth". :) When it snows here we get like 6 - 12 inches at a time. You should see the crazy drivers on the roads sliding all over the place. lol

SNAGit great for webcam captures too...Wonder what those are for?  LoL

But we are in the prime of the winter season in our area so I will update with some pics if it occurs (TEXAS PANHANDLE) :)

Hell grew up in El Paso and moved here, and the weather is nuts (TORNADOES, SNOW STORMS, HAIL, DAMN AMARILLO)!!!  :idiot2:
