Yesterday, I was off from work and able to walk mid-day. Â Low tide and plenty of hard sand by the water allowed for an extra long walk.
I posted my modified “polar bear plunge” picture on Twitter…but will share it again here 😉
This morning, the tide was high, so I had to walk near the dunes. Â If I had been closer to the ocean, I would have missed the Snowy Owl!
There have been newspaper articles about local sightings of the owls, and I hoped to catch a glimpse, too.
The owl stayed still for a few pictures before retreating to another section of Stone Harbor Point.













Freezing Temperatures
Cold wind can freeze pipes in the crawl space (open crawl space vents are often the cause). Â If outside faucets/showers aren’t drained, Â pipes will freeze, and then crack.
Inside your home, open the cabinet doors under the kitchen and bathroom sinks (allows heat to flow around the pipes). Turn up the thermostat a few degrees just to be safe.
Always worthwhile to ride down to check doors and windows, and make sure all household items are secure.
Stay warm!
