Re: More weather

That's probably what I mean. Molded rubber bottom on an orange/yellow top. It was the shoe/boot that launched to company and, yes, I think they quit selling them.

No, I have the original Bean boots. I can't believe they'd stop making those, I think that was their original product that got the company going. They aren't stylish but I don't give a roaring rat's rump when I am trying 
to stay warm.

Pam--Have you got a pair of those Bean's "funny shoes"? I used to have them, and was all set to get another pair, but apparently they don't make them anymore. They were called, I think, "Bean's Original Hunting Shoe," and 
they were really great for slogging through this white stuff.

I am actually considering getting some snow boots or similar, just in case this happens again when it's really cold. Wet feet weren't so bad 
this time because despite the snow it barely got below 30.
My sister was stuck for 3 days at her house, she lives about an hour from me but higher elevation. Her big hay shader collapsed from the snow load with the tractor underneath, her 4x4 couldn't get any traction and there was too much snow for anything else to move. No one on her street could get out either. I told her I didn't have a lot of sympathy, she's 
got 5 horses that could be saddled up, she could have gone riding.

I walked out on the front porch & stuck a yardstick in the snow. Picked 
a
couple of low areas. Very unofficial 7 inches on the ground. Over the 
tops
of any shoes I own, so I won't be venturing any further unless I did out 
the
gaiters I used to wear cross country skiing. Home sick from work, the 
cold I
picked up last week is worse. At least I don't feel guilty skipping the 
drive down the hill.

We're getting snow again this AM. Now we have a ground cover of snow, 
ice, snow. And the paper sez it will keep up like this until after


Cmas.


Last night we lost a fair-sized limb off one of the big incense


cedars in
the back yard and a neighbor's maple is now bending over the fence 


and
touching down on our deck; it doesn't look like it's broken, however. 


Big
limbs on one of the oak trees in the park across the street are bent 


to


the ground. Some nearby areas have lost power. Our  utilities are
underground so with a little luck we'll be spared outages; it's no 


time


to be without power.

won't be a continual drip off the roof.  In addition to all the

tree limbs, we noticed another casualty while driving to work
today...there are loose Botts dots all over the freeway, no doubt the snowplows took them out. Since California is pretty much bankrupt I'm 
guessing it will be a while before those get replaced.
It is very windy with dark dark clouds now in advance of the rain. 
We're supposed to see this same stuff for the rest of the week.
