In 40 minutes it went from raining to snowing so hard that we had 1 1/2 inches of snow on the deck! Very cool. I love snow.

I do remember when we lived in Azle that Lake Worth froze over. We decided then that it was time to move back south.

During the Republic, it snowed in Texas every year and some places had it year-round.

Now we call that Colorado.
