The Texas freeze over was not a very fun experiance. It was cold and miserable but could have been much much worse. Our family of five ate well and stayed warm. But it got me thinking about our college student days...we wouldn't have been as well prepared. We didn't have any water storage if we had ever had to deal with frozen pipes things would have been bad.
