Ridge Road in Ashland, Oregon (February 2025)
In February 2025, Ashland received more snow than it had in over 55 years. This winter, we haven’t had more than a few flakes that didn’t stick.
Sadly, this beautiful monkey-puzzle tree didn’t make it through 2025. I don’t know if February’s heavy snow was a contributing factor. The good news is that the owners have planted another one so in a few decades it should look similar to the old one.

Ashland, Oregon (January 2026)
“The Lord said, ‘Peter, I can see your house from here’.”
— Roger Waters, Amused to Death
I’ve spent far more time looking at Grizzly Peak from my house than the opposite over the past 26 years. Today’s photo is the rare exception.
