Show & Tell: The Ice Storm Cometh

 photo

I live in Houston.  That is to say, I live in the little strip of Houston that is only 30 minutes from Galveston and right next to the Space Center.  So, when cold weather gets all the way down here it's pretty rare.  Even more rare is freezing precipitation.  All week there were dire warnings about snow and thick ice and WE'RE ALL GOING TO DIE.  While the rest of the country dug out from legitimate storms, we woke up to nothing but a little ice.  The Space Center is closed and so is daycare.  I went in a little late since I work just off site, but M is home with both kids. To top it all off, we've got L in underwear.  That will be a whole other blog post, I'm sure.  So, my show and tell is photos of our little piece of the storm that swept across the country.

  1. Stayed at Moody Gardens for 4 days a few years back, did the whole NASA tour during a launch from Florida. We watched from NASA, Houston, listened to mission control, was very cool. Love the area!
