My Winter Garb

I’m OK on jackets and jeans, have a couple polartec headbands but may have some additional headgear coming our way. My choice of winter boot is Crocs. Crocs with holes. In a storm I’ll switch to hole-less black ones. Otherwise it’s funeral shoes.

This is definitely not a Girl Scout moment, preparedness-wise, but then I didn’t get many of those, did I Mrs. Nasty Lady who laughed at my sewing and camping and failed me on my first badge.

To buy hiking or winter boots nearing May is folly in my book. I’m going to stick with what I’ve got. Jim’s got solid casual shoes to get him through the next couple of weeks so we hope to save some money on this.

I haven’t seen a crocus or daffodil in weeks here so think the winter storms were too much for them. Too bad. I used to love them back east, and the forsythia and lilacs came out later and were wonderful, along with pussy willows.

Right now we’re excited to see the birds and am sure more Spring and Summer will ensue at some point, whenever that may be in Utah. Cheers, Dee
