WINTER STORM 1-2 FEBRUARY 2011

On 31 January, we were getting warnings and media hype about a coming "Storm of the Century" (even though we're only 10 years into the 21st century) . . . over 1/3 of the nation's population would be affected, according to the doomsayers. I did go out on Monday to get groceries, Rico's meds (MOST IMPORTANT), and MaryB & I met for lunch while we still could. This is all we had for snowfall . . . Those are Daisy2Legs tracks Tuesday morning, still not much snow, but LOTS OF PANIC. Bread & milk were flying off grocery shelves. I was able to get to Walgreens for Rico's other meds, and I was set for, as Marcella Garza called it, Armageddon. Or maybe SNOWmageddon would be more apropos. At 5:15 Tuesday evening, it began to snow and blow and snow and blow, ad nauseum. These were taken at 5:36 p.m.
