Yeah we had a bit here. Not as much as I hear hit Texas... But for certain areas of California, snow is an unwelcome event... Now I mostly don't stay in the central valley any more... Working out north and high in the mountains means that I did expect snow, which was there, but not near as much as we might like. Then again the area I work in is high desert for a reason! Like we usually measure rain fall in inches (apart for the drops!) most years.
So will I be writing any more stories? Probably not as long as I'm lifting lumber for a living. For some reason that leaves me exhausted to the point that these blogs are even getting a bit less often....
Safety glasses still fogging... Well it did snow! Boot report: I purchased a pair of Keen Utility Foot wear (read boots with a 6" upper or there about) I like them somewhat. They seem comfortable to wear, but I'm still too much in the sawdust and probably should have picked up an 8" boot. The other issue seems to be that the original laces in these boots will not hold a knot... It is worse than using a leather thong... Which I used for a while in my Georgia Boot Logger style boots. The reason that I bought the Keens was that the Georgia Boot Rumbler style boot didn't stand up to me pushing heavy loads... The upper separated. I may try to get them to a cobbler (if there is anyone plying that trade...) if the pandemic ever eases (Or if Kate Brown ever eases her trip into fascism) I'm of the opinion that at this point the lockdowns are at best counterproductive. Then again I've heard it said that the absolute best that ever results from socialism is mendacious mediocrity....
Take care all!
