HOUSTON - Head in the clouds

Video Link




Here's what happened. Houston got its days mixed up, thought today was Halloween and couldn't decide if it wanted to dress up as Chicago or Seattle. Hard to tell, especially with the wind to go with the clouds and drizzle.



Let's proceed.



















.....eh, let's do something else.

Underground we go.















Let's go get a closer look at the gorgeous weather.







Oh....I see. Or actually, no, I don't see.





Getting better...







Or as good as it's going to get.











QUACK



QUACK



QUACK



QUACK








































































This weekend's looking better on the weather front.



Drive safely....




















And live responsibly.

Yes, starting or ending at the Saucer is always a great thing, diskojoe! Nice shots, James, very nice shots!

I didn't realize Houston had such an extensive tunnel system. Great photos, thanks!

Another great set! Loved that last skyline shot! BG Place really adds to skyline from that angle!

Ah, Texas weather in wintertime. Even if it isn't winter yet, this is what it's like. Cold, rainy, foggy, grey.

I honestly don't think I've ever heard or seen anyone say that before!

At least in El Nino years, right? Maybe this coming winter will be mostly nice, since a La Nina pattern has taken over. Hope so anyway.
