The third week, of the unexpected extended Christmas break was quite the week. The children attended school only one day for my bunch. The weather was bad enough to warrant the cancellation of the buses because safety has to come first. The high winds and falling and blowing snow can make it very dangerous for seeing children waiting or crossing the roads to board the bus. Drivers were finding it difficult to see the centreline or sides of the roads, much less able to see the flashing lights of the stopped bus. Always better safe than sorry than to lose the life of even one child, so the buses were cancelled. Of course there is the good and bad that comes with the unexpected event of the children being home, because some parents still have to go to work. Arranging extended normal child care, taking the day off work or calling on grandma, all options used. Some children are able to be left at home, so maybe extra chores can be accomplished. The good falls on the children’s side as they enjoy the days off and the bad is the extra organizing for the parents. Teachers may enjoy the time off but also know that lesson plans have to be taught and extra work for them is ahead. I will personally say I enjoyed the stormy days off. I didn’t have to drive the bus but I still had to go to work in town. It was very quiet with many cancellations, so I was home early. I spent time catching up with those jobs that seem to be always put off. Cleaning out some drawers and cupboards, organizing my desk, doing the financial books for farm, business and hall, sorting clothes etc. It was quiet and relaxing and quite enjoyable. I didn’t mind it at all! The snow, more snow and more snow meant news around the area was about snow! There was good news though. Congratulations to Ted and Marlene Little on the birth of a new granddaughter. Proud parents are Rick and Anita MacLeod and they have a beautiful little girl they have named Chelsea Maye. Congratulations to all. Unfortunately a few folks have not been well. We hope Bill Stephenson is feeling better as he is a patient in Wingham Hospital. We send our get well wishes to Stewart Steiss as he suffered a fall and broke his tail bone. This is a very uncommon oops, but my late mother-in-law suffered that break. It is a very painful injury and has a slow recovery time. We wish Stew a full recovery. A few local folks had an experience of a lifetime over New Year’s. Matt Lee, Mike Cronin and Mike Pawitch attended the bronze and gold medal games of the IIHF World Junior Hockey Championships at Toronto’s Air Canada Centre. They said it was just amazing. The game, the atmosphere, the jubilation of the win. Awesome! Matt Lee had been to Toronto for games with sons Ryder and Hayden on the weekend and Mike Cronin had taken Matt’s son Sheldon for the games also. It was a great time and experience for all. Our condolences are expressed to Susan Robinson and Brent and family on the passing of her father, Franklin Roney. He will be missed by his wife Margaret and their other six children and their families. Our sympathy to all. Did I mention all the snow? It seems there was enough snow out there to prompt the snowmobiling crowd to hit the trails. On Saturday evening, I could see groups of sledders out on the trail and then again on Sunday. I did see the trail folks still out staking in areas on Friday and haven’t seen the groomer very often. When you love the outside sport, many were out whether the trails were all open or not! Our get well wishes go to Jim Lee who is still not as well as we would like. There are still lots of folks with cold and flu out there and we hope everyone is soon feeling back to normal. Viola Travis is still a patient in Seaforth Hospital and we hope she is soon well enough to be released. Our sympathies are extended to the family of the late Delores Souch. She will be missed by her husband Bill and family Gary, Dave and Linda and their families. Delores will be remembered for her talent and business in soapmaking, an all- natural lye soap used for people, pets, laundry and other uses. Our condolences to all.

By Jo-Ann McDonald Call 887-6570 PEOPLE AROUND WALTON NEWS FROM WALTON Lockdown Huron County Ontario Provincial Police (OPP) were called to Central Huron Secondary School and arrived in force when a weapon was suspected at the school on Monday afternoon. At least six cruisers brought officers, some armed with automatic rifles, to the site. According to reports from the OPP, there was no weapon and a male was questioned and found to have not been a threat to staff or students at the school.
