Hopper Time in Texas

[Uncle Jesse]

Freezing those hoppers out! The panhandle gets the most severe weather in the entire state of Texas I think.

Back when I used to frequent the panhandle a couple of times a year someone told me "There's nothing between Amarillo and Canada but a rusty barbed wire fence, and it's down most of the time." The last time I was in Amarillo I saw the temperature swing from 72 deg. to a wind chill of minus 40 in about 36 hours.

But one of the prettiest ladies of my generation I know is a native of Borger, although she was happy to have escaped to Tomball.
