Kids have been out of school here for the second day now; wonder what's  going to happen today.  Can't figure out  why things are thee way they are either on this.  Driving  on our freeway and through a couple of towns here last evening, it's plain to see the difference in road clearing priorities - or maybe the wind and snow has favorites. Columbia Valley, which is on the U.S. border, was totally quiet but beautiful with the snow still on trees and the moon was bright.

I think we've become paranoidingly scared of this type of weather so we just shut down our education system. Other places in our country doesn't shut down the minute it snows or gets a bit cold like what we're having it. When cars won't start because of not using Amoil people don't think about using something that will work in this weather.
