Even a light snowfall can shift how we navigate winter, hiding icy patches on sidewalks or softening the familiar lines of streets and yards, and the solid curbs beneath.

As snow accumulates, curbs blur, sidewalks narrow, and the landscape we rely on for footing and orientation begins to disappear beneath a thickening, windblown blanket.

In this month’s column, contributor Cathy Hird reflects on how snow reshapes the way we move through both rural roads and town streets, reminding us that it’s not just the snow we see but what it hides that shapes our days.

Owen Sound Current is the city’s only independent, locally owned, ad-free news source — in your inbox five days a week.
