I pack my suitcase with light clothes, shorts etc. fly on down to Texas, get off the plane wearing said shorts, light tshirt and suntan lotion only to freeze my rear off......



Ok, world, let it be known, Texas gets cold during the winter as well.....

 

Hehehe.....36 degrees at the moment with winds out of the north at 18 mph. A bit chilly for shorts.

 

HAHA

 

Yep! But the good thing about Tx weather is it usually doesn't stay the same way for long...
(except during the summer!)
But, I have had frost on the grass in the morning and the building A/C running by late afternoon!

58 in Houston right now - the Edit rain has finally quit for a day or two!

Maybe you are bringing it with you. This is the second time you have been here (that I know of) and the second time there has been crappy weather. Is there a correlation?
(Did your company at least spring for a car this time?)

No kidding. Woke up this morning and it was cloudy and misty and windy. Now it's sunny and warming up a little bit. Still a little windy. I finally got to run with the windows down and listen to my beautiful cummins and my new exhaust. I love it.

 

It's certainly warming up. We're up to 46 degrees now and the winds have died down to a breezy 13 mph.

 

I'm not sure they know they have sprung for a car yet....

so we went out for supper last night, drove down greenvale? ave eventually landing up in downtown Dallas, drove around in circles for a while and ended up on 45 south to Houston....
got the thing turned around, came back to the hotel and walked over to chillies.......

had supper at BJ's tonight, across from the hooters and olive garden, not bad pizza in there I was tempted to sample their microbrew but settled on their home made root beer. not bad....

as for the weather, I just think you guy's are fibbing, it never really gets warm down here and this is just some grand conspiracy to keep the rest of the nation envious After all this is my second time down here and it's still cold........

 

If you don't like the weather... wait a minute and it'll change.

 

Finally, huh? If my windows aren't froze shut, I still have the windows down a bit, even when it is 15-20* outside, just to listen to the stacks.....

 

Thats funny about them not knowing they have sprung for a ride yet
Your trip downtown sounds just like mine and I have been here for 7 years. Everytime I go downtown, I go in a different way, get spun around in circles and spit back out a different way. I just look for 35N or 75N, from either one of those I can get back home
I don't think I will be able to hook up with you guys this time, my folks are visiting from PA and we have been going out every night.

I was in Dallas for a whopping 20 minutes on saturday and if I never have to go back it will be to soon. Even late on saturday afternoon the traffic was horrible.

 

no problem Rob, we have a pile of studying to do, on saturday morning we fly out to california for another week of studying..... Maybe there will be some sun there

 

If you want sun, come to oregon. We're in an el nino year & all our neighbors to the south are getting our usual weather. We're going to the coast this weekend. Now where did I put that sun screen?
