Texas Fall/Winter thread!

It appears that the rain is over and I just dumped about 1.7" out of my gauge.

And I've never seen Duck Dynasty; don't figure I've missed anything, but maybe I'm wrong.

TxDon: Don, if you see this post, is this the rain gage you have? If I get a Amazon gift card for Christmas, I just might let my gift-card Santa bring me one of these.:thumbsup:

Jim, that is the one I have and it's worth every penny!

I just dumped out 2.17 WOOOT Water running in the "dry" creek, so bet we all got some needed run-off

All this talk about Chili has my mouth watering, but here's something you may want to try:

At my Dad's restaurant we use to serve tons of Enchilada Plates-- Cheese & onion Enchiladas with just a classic Texas chili. Kind of a "Truck stop" Plate. Over the years I started serving a 2-3 Cheese Enchiladas instead of a Baked potato with a Steak of your choice. It is a real winner.

Also I use to have a Chili and Cheese omelet on the menu that seem to be a real winner for the customers that were out to late the night before.

Then we also had the "Cowboy Chicken Fried Steak"---Classic CFS topped with Chili, Cheese & Onions. I know, I know, I'm kind of a classic CFS guy who needs some really good country gravy on my CFS, but give this a try, it is unbelieveable.

Now I'm going to go out to the freezer and pull out a quart of chili to thaw for some meal before Christmas.

Bird--Give it a look, it's different. They actually make some Texas Rednecks look good sometimes.

Lou, I've watched three episodes and they were all painful. I have a granddaughter who loves the show. I love their story, but hate the show. Everybody here knows that you are only allowed to be that obsessive about tractors. I walked through Walmart yesterday and had that clan staring at me from greeting cards, to towels, and throw pillows. I haven't seen that much themed merchandise since the Star Wars craze when Chewbaccas and Yodas were everywhere.

Rechecked my rain gage a few minutes ago since this seems to be the end of the storm. We are at 2-1/4" since yesterday afternoon. My close ponds are up a foot to 18". This is one of the bigger rainfall events of 2013.

Jim,
It's okay to obsessive with ducks too.
hugs, Brandi

.2" of rain in the guage. No Robertson sightings. Electricty hooked up to the barn. Overall, a good day.

1/2" overall and the sun came out after the front came thru. Looks to be a nice evening on the patio with a fire in the fire pit. Rick

Got 1.3 in gauge today in Central Texas, got some nice run off. Nice day after sun can out. I prefer Haydell calls. HS

I guess you can not see West Monroe La. from your back door?

We got 1/4 inch this morning and 1/2 inch this afternoon.
