Despite the fact that it’s still considered Autumn on the calendar, winter has officially arrived here in the North Country (Ft. Drum, NY). We’re expecting more snow, 1-3 inches, tonight with temperatures hovering in the teens.
FM and I went through the list of “warm” items we need to survive the brutal winters here and first on the list are warmer boots for him. He wore what he considers his winter boots yesterday to take FG sledding and came home with very cold toes. 😦
I ordered my “state of the art”, (click on state of the art for a peek)NASA engineered, winter boots last week which are suppose to be the warmest ever without the heaviness of the usual winter boot. I’ll give a product review update here on the blog once I wear them awhile. Just in case anyone reading this will be in need of warm winter boots.
Hey, I should be a cold weather products tester for these winter items ~ wonder if any company would pay me to do such things?! hmmm…

Brrrrrrr. Winter comes early in NY!! I grew up with snow (Michigan), and it was fun when I was a child, but living in Southern California for many years has thinned my blood. I don’t think I could handle it anymore!! I’d be inside all the time!

Can’t wait to hear how the boots work out! I desparately need warm winter boots!! Any other items you discover, pass along the info~ I am a minimalist when it comes to warm weather attire . . . that may be why I spend so much time inside during the winter! HA!
