Melina Meza, a senior at Bluffton HS, shares this snow photo with Icon viewers. "This photo was taken at my house on North Dixie Highway. You can find this little snow bunny on the edge of the porch. He sits there as a reminder of all the little rabbit footprints that can be seen in the snow around Bluffton," she said. Melina wins a Padrone's pizza in the Icon's snow photo contest.
