a brief excerpt

"If the Church's worship is faithful, it will eventually be subversive of the culture surrounding it, for God's truth transforms the lives of those nurtured by it"

Winners, Crazy Car drifting, Snowboarding in the back hills, going to Kelsey's for Matt V's birthday - In General a snow day.

I prefer the second one and that is what we got today.

Environment Canada, has estimated and average of 75 cm of snow in the Hamilton area. So, ya classes were cancelled today, and I am betting on classes being cancelled for tomorrow. Instead about 8 of us went snowboarding at the back hills of Redeemer, where a few weeks ago we had already built a nice jumps, that provided a great jump for today's fun. Here is a picture of the school closures of this morning - it includes Redeemer.

So, this is the second day of in the year, and for a Canadian-Dutchie like me this is quite exciting. A couple weeks ago we had a crazy ice-storm, in which everything was covered in ice. Here are a few pictures of that.

Twigs covered in ice
Chains covered in ice

Everything was covered in ice, trees, plants, corn, walls. lamps, even grass. It is awesome that we are actually having a real winter, it didn't look like it at all, but I really appreciate it.
