Fifteen centimeters of snow (fall) covered the whole island. More snow coming down until late in the afternoon yesterday. TV news featured so many road accidents from the highway, streets and on the sidewalk. Slippery 'ya know. Lorne managed to wake up early and sprinkled salt on the ground.

I'd like to walk and take photographs then to my dismay my digital camera needs new batteries. Darn! So I settle to just warm up here at home. Just as I posted "time to go home of FB" we received a call from my son that he wants to go home at 2pm. Then after my husband is finished talking to him my daughter's teacher phoned too. Classes were suspended at 2:00 PM. Some group of students were out on the streets and preferred to walk home.

I think it should be mandatory that when there is so much pile of snow on the road, highways and sidewalk it's best to announce that there will be no school or classes are supposed to be suspended as precautionary measures to avoid accident. Better be safe than sorry.

Anyway, the snow didn't last long though. Showers melted the snow at about 11pm last night. Good for so many commuters and workers who would rather be not hassled.

This morning small paw prints outside our main entrance door are visible. Lorne thought the footprints probably belong to raccoon. It cannot be porcupine. Maybe looking for food eh?

Have you seen raccoons? Those bandit-looking creatures whose eyes are a bit squinty and face looks like wearing a mask and the tail has black and white stripes or sometimes greyish color instead of white. That's the culprit walking on the snow. I saw so many of them before at the village. They are bigger than a cat and ferocious hounding for food of any kind. I should have taken some pictures of them but hey told 'ya my camera needs battery. lol. That's right I need energizer.

Oh wait maybe there is an old battery that I can use from the drawer. So there I go, stepped down thr. the stairs and took photographs and there is nothing wrong with that right? Who knows maybe the raccoon paw prints maybe just from the neighbor's dog.

There are so many fun stuff to do during winter time too bad many opposed to such kind of weather. They would really rather be in a tropical climate country instead. Know what? You can all go to the carribean or mediterenean instead frolic in the Bahamas and Tahiti provided that it's your own expense not mine.

You want the beach as a first class beach you'd better clean it first and sanitize with thousand gallons of chlorine. How to do that? Ask the experts in desalination or water purification system analyst adviser if not be ready with the screw worms and filth. Yikkess. Who would like to have those?

Water, water... the most important source of life. Without water there is no oxygen. Without water and oxygen there is no living things on earth. Life wont exist.
