In HOUSTON, TEXAS!!!!!!

That's right. We are in a snow storm in Houston.

Ironically, I am going to Norway and it's warmer there today!

Just thought I'd share. ;-)

Snow in Houston?? Amazing! Hope you brought your skis though. We have at least 6 inches here.

On another note: Were you able to pick up a pair of FlexTT PW's for the poor photo safari chauffeur? :D

Sorry pal. Couldn't get by the camera store before they closed.

Besides, last time I brought you gear you beat me out of a ribbon. Can't let that happen again.

We made it to Newark in time for the connection to Oslo. I just wish I had had time to get some snow shots from Houston.

See you soon!

Have a safe trip. De-icing is definitely worth waiting for. Funny thing, we are expecting snow in Birmingham, Alabama tonight also. Doesn't happen around here very often.

I posted some shots of the Houston "snow storm" here. It was really quite nice to play in the snow in our backyard - first time ever.

The thread title just doesn't have the same rhythm as "sittin' on the dock of the bay." Sorry. ;)

Good to see you made it there safely. Pass along a hello to Kongsberg for me.
