Can you get there from south Arkansas with a diesel powered F 150 and teardrop ? If a land trip in impractical, maybe rockinrobin can work out a tow with his airplane - I understand that he has done it before, although CAJON LADY doesn't believe it. :thinking: :thumbsup:

About an inch or so here in Little Rock, but heard places in south AR have 6+ inches. Todd Y. on KATV is predicting up to 9 inches for next Wednesday, but says the weather models could change.

I can still get to the airport, so Mexico is looking good.


Snowing again here... :( If we get too much more Joplin will be in trouble I think..

Mark, I'd swear you're related to my BIL. He would walk around all day outside, in the snow with nothing on but a pair of shorts. Made me cold just to see him and now you're giving me chills :lol:

Well, he is wearing an Aggie shirt, so that would explain a lot!

W-E-L-L ????? Not making acknowledgment of such a great opportunity would be a great disservice to all mankind !!!!!!!

You know, I had not really thought about it, but I have an Aggie ex son-in-law that wears shorts all year, regardless of the temperature. AND, one of my sons is an Aggie and he wears shorts a lot. Maybe we are on to an identifying feature here ----- do all Aggies wear shorts in cold weather, OR are all people wearing shorts in cold weather an Aggie ?????? This stuff really boggles my mind.

I just love to harrass Aggies, or can you tell ? BUT, I tell you what, I have never met an Aggie that couldn't take it, and that says a lot !!!!!!!

I know what you are thinking - you know an Aggie that you want me to meet. One thing about being old - you don't get that way in good shape without knowing when to talk and when NOT to talk !!!!! :D

Mark,

I don't know what the hub-bub is about your picture. I didn't see anything out of place or unordinary.

Jeff,

We're heading to McAllen tomorrow (Saturday) morning. I'll let you know how things are down there.

Well I flew home today and the cold hit me before I got to the parking lot. WOW, now I see what you guys are complaining about. When I left Cancun at 4 it was 78 degrees. I get to Houston and its 31. I'm sure it's worse for most of you guys north of here. Stay warm. Hopefully the warm sunshine will spread and you can thaw out.

Then, don't come to Dallas. I have five inches in my yard. And there is ice under that.

Yep, that's an Aggie for you. And a cat. He has two strikes against him in the brains department. :roll:
