The Icon invites viewers to send us snow scene photos. We will post as many as we can. Please provide your name and the scene location.
These can be any photo taken this month surrounding or inside Bluffton. Photos can be scenic, include people or animals, snow creation or snow drifts - anything that represents the recent snowfall.
Here's a photo taken by the Icon. It shows the snow drifting around the drainage ditch on Columbus Grove Road, just west of Ebenezer Mennonite Church.
