Some spots got up to 14 inches. Again that is a lot of snow for Oklahoma. They are expecting more to come in tomorrow evening to add to the snow that has not melted.

The snow maybe pretty but when it comes in as a blizzard and closes down every highway in the center of the state it ceases to hold any beauty to me.
Bet your trip was an exciting one.
Thinking of you and yours, may this next year be a heck of alot better.
