Maybe it's our screen resolution or something, but that's all I see too. Plus, the sand looks as course as gravel.

(If you look carefully there are snowmen on a coffe cup.)
I was just teasing and figured "litter" could be taken as trash or kittly litter because that is how the sand looks. Maybe it was funnier in my own head

Oo
I know you were teasing about not seeing the snowman ( between me and you I believe Spider didn't really see it! ), but I didn't get the litter joke I mean,until you explained it. Don't get depressed though ....you are funny most of times!
Love the rainbow, I didn't know they have rainbows in LA.

It might be the sand coming from China. The beaches in Miami they didn't have sand, it was just a bunch of bushes so to turn those into beaches they bought sand from other States. But I was reading lately that there is no more sand in the USA and here in Florida they need more and China apparently has a lot of sand but there is a law that prohibits to import sand from other countries but may be they fixed it because it looks like China's sand.

I'm going to look into getting a law passed to prohibit importing snow from Canada. That would make our Winters in Chicago much nicer, since that's where a lot of it comes from.

You are right,when I was living in New York there was so much snow and it was always coming from Canada!

THE FINAL
INSPECTION
The Soldier stood and faced God,
INSPECTION
The Soldier stood and faced God,
Which must always come to pass.
He hoped his shoes were shining,
Just as brightly as his brass.
'Step forward now, Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?'
The soldier squared his shoulders and said,
'No, Lord, I guess I ain't.
Because those of us who carry guns,
Can't always be a saint.
I've had to work most Sundays,
And at times my talk was tough.
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny,
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime,
When the bills got just too steep.
And I never passed a cry for help,
Though at times I shook with fear.
And sometimes, God, forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place,
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around,
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here, Lord,
It needn't be so grand.
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand.
There was a silence all around the throne,
Where the saints had often trod.
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
'Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burdens well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell.'
