Sophomore in college. I spent that Christmas break feeding cows, chopping ice on tanks and shooting deer.

Then, the next year(Jan 85), back from Korea, there I was in San Antonio, where you never expect snow, when... we got 13.5 inches.

Back to Korea for another year, and this time i come back to OKC (Jan 87), and we get over 8" of snow... and then do it again in Dec!

I seen full size pick-ups on the ice at Cedar Creek Lake. Not me brother.

Just finishing Arming Basic Training at Ft. Sill, OK

I was living in Plano. I remember big snow drifts on Park Lane at West Senoir High. Some idiot got stuck in one and when he got back to car the locks were frozen. I went duck hunting on Lavon north of Lucas. The lake was frozen to the bridge. I found a thin batch just north of the ramp. Broke up some ice and threw some dekes out. My Golden went in the water with with me and was a block of ice when she got out. I shot a Greenhead that landed about 150 yards out on ice. It was all I could do to hold her back. I got home and her tail was a ball of ice. Buddy of mine that was a guide called and said he took a group to Farmersville that could not shoot. We went out that afternoon and busted up the ice and every duck in the county wanted in that open water. Fortunately I had a 4wd back then and has a blast busting through the snow drifts. DFW did not get a lot of snow but what we had was powder and it drifted.
