That is just too cute. You should have taken photos of them while trying to build it :) Then turned it into a sorta time laspe video.

In typical Texas snow fashion, did the snowman last passed noon?

I don't suppose anyone grabbed the opportunity to get a few shots of the Alamo, did they? I'd love to do a series of Texas landmarks in the snow, but all the major ones are a lot farther from me than I'd be willing to drive in that weather.

most roads getting there were either closed or grid locked with drivers trying to get to work, I thought about it though

If I had an existing black and white shot of the Alamo, just for grins, I would like to try adding in a layer with snow in the right places. But, that's way above my abilities with CS2, which I currently own.
