Snow In Esquimalt

I had no idea this was coming. As soon as the radio said snow I was up and peering out the window, like a child again. It was quite a bit too, about 24cm. I took a walk over to Saxe Point and Macauley Point Parks hoping to take a few photos.

The Cairn Park

The Cairn Park appears deserted. People are still digging through garages looking for their magic carpets. The Cairn is too rocky to slide on anyway.

Fisgard Lighthouse

Saxe Point was deserted too. Fisgard Lighthouse (the first lighthouse in Western Canada) can be seen off in the distance from Saxe Point park.

Macaulay Point used to be a military defence position and is now a park. The bunkers and gun emplacements are still there.

It was starting to snow harder so I left for home. My camera was getting damp. I spotted this sign on the way home. I'm not sure it was really necessary.
