It has been 100 years since snow fell in Galveston County on Christmas Day! We rarely see a hard freeze more than two days out of each winter. Below are pictures of this rare event from our home in Santa Fe, Texas! Hope everyone had a great holiday season.

Preparing my December chili pepper crops for the rare cold blast.

Snow falling on my crops.

Ho, Ho, WHOA! Santa got a little frost bit!

Another shot of snow in the field. Had to get the craftsman put up (they have a hard enough time running)!

My wife and I built us a "Chili Farmer" snowman!

How bout a hot purira snowman?

Colorful Puriras made a nice base.

I measured the snow fall at the openings of all my out buildings.
