"A Day To Remember"

Yesterday was a big day here in Waco. In fact, the local news station dubbed it the "Great Snow of 2010". How much snow is required to reach weather immortality? Brace yourself... 3 inches! Oh my!


Schools closed early (yay!), Texans drived erratically and for every street corner there was a snowman. In fact, if you didn't make it outside before 4 pm to see the snow falling -- you would have thought that a snowman delivery service just stopped by.

We decided to enjoy the weather with a 12 block walk to the grocery store to pick up dinner supplies and soak in the snowflakes. But... our 24 block outdoor excursion turned into a.. umm.. 48 block, hour and a half, excursion. It seems, one shouldn't leave ones keys at the check out counter.. The clerk's response: "Well, I figured, you couldn't get very far without these.. I was surprised you didn't come back sooner!' yea...


After warming up, we settled down to an evening of Olympic Hockey, crossword puzzles and studying. As you can see, Loki's obsession with pencils and "helping" continues to grow. Thanks Kitty!
