Out of an abundance of caution, mostly based off the trauma of last year's storm, most of the Great State Of Texas hunkered down as this year's storm came rolling in. While most of East Texas managed to not get turned into a winter wonderland and saw only a few flurries, Dallas and most points west of I-45 were covered in snow. But instead of focusing on negative, I rather focus on the folks who turned this into a positive and went outside and had FUN or helped a neighbor in need in the midst of potential chaos.
