Snowy Sweetwater Creek
My wife and I headed out to Sweetwater Creek State Park in Lithia Springs to see how much snow they got during the epic storm that hit last week.
While much of the snow had melted there was still plenty on the ground in ice along the creek.
White Monday…
Well, just a few short days after a white Christmas, Douglasville and the rest of north Georgia was hit again with snow … this time … A LOT of snow!
Reports of 5-7 inches in some places around the Metro.
Here’s a look out my front door this a.m. State officials want to keep everyone off the roads. We’ll see how long that lasts.
