If you’ve been reading the Gazette for a while, you know I love winter. My mom’s photo archives include lots of pictures of me playing outside in the snow at our house in Old Mission.
I still love to play in the snow, whether I’m moving firewood from one place to another, snowshoeing the trail on the north end, or just driving around the OMP taking pictures. Here are a few photos from the past week, including the first Snowy Owl I’ve seen this winter — on Eimen Road.

And yes, I will work on getting some of these available to buy in the OMP Store, along with the photos in the 2025 calendar! After I hit Send on the Gazette email newsletter later today, I plan to spend tomorrow working on store stuff.

Thanks, Janis! You know, I saw that owl for several days whenever I drove by Eimen Road, and then suddenly he was gone and I haven’t seen him since. Maybe he knew the weather was going to be warming up and decided to hit the road (or rather, air) to colder lands.
Love your pictures Jane, especially the Snowy Owl and Winter on Bluff Road

Wonderful snow pictures. How beautiful is all the snow.
