So on Friday we decide to head on our way home from Houston. We leave pretty early in the morning and we were planning on getting to Denver late at night. When we get close to Amarillo it starts to snow. Keep in mind that we're still in Texas. We get a little past Amarillo and the roads were closed so we had to turn around and head back. We eat at McDonald's and watch the news hoping to see that the roads would open soonish. Well they said that they wouldn't so we call our credit card company and ask if they can switch our hotel reservation in Denver to Amarillo. We did this because we got both our hotel stays for our trip with credit card points. Luckily they were nice and let us switch to a hotel in Amarillo. This is just the drive on our way from McDonald's to our hotel. Kind of scary.
This is the view from our hotel room.
And the very next morning. Bright and sunny without a cloud in the sky. Dumb.
Notice how much snow there is everywhere. Like an Idaho snow storm that shouldn't happen in Texas. Me and Eric also heard that this was the storm of the year. Lucky us. We ended up leaving Amarillo at about 10ish the next morning and didn't get home until 3:30 the next morning. Long long long drive, but I'm glad we made it home safe.
