Snow in McKinney - 03-06-2008, 05:38 PM


Took some snapshots on my treacherous drive home from picking up the kids today. The roads were very icy in parts. Two cars in front of me slid off the road into the ditch. I almost slid into the car in front of me and slid again on one of the larger roads. The brakes were barely working on a couple of the roads cuz it was so bad. Anyway, managed to take a few pics on our way home. Nothing spectacular, just showing the amount of snow...and it's still snowing!

Yeah, when the two cars slipped off the road in front of me, that was Frisco. At that time (my boys go to school in Frisco), Frisco was worse than McKinney. When I was picking up my daughter in McKinney, it started getting as bad as Frisco.

Do you ever take any bad pics Leslie? Glad to see you faced the elements and survived. Now get out early in the morning and get more pics before it all melts!

Nice, serene shots, Leslie! If I could get my car out of the driveway, I'd go exploring because the landscape is so pretty right now.
