Remembering The Past

[Synfulz]

Toughskins jeans were mentioned earlier. I had toughskins corduroys







for the winter months. I remeber the swishing sound they would make as you walked through the cavernous halls of the school.







And the snow today reminded me of the time I hooked up our husky to my sled and took off down the sidewalk. Didn't end well as the first telephone pole became a sudden stop. 

I couldn't stand wearing courdoroy.

Hi Folks,

Ever hear of Corduroy Roads?

A corduroy road or log road is a type of road or timber trackway made by placing logs, perpendicular to the direction of the road over a low or swampy area. The result is an improvement over impassable mud or dirt roads, yet rough in the best of conditions and a hazard to horses due to shifting loose logs.

Best,
Phil

I for one was glad to see it pass with relatively few issues - I know many places had staff on site at midnight on Y2K - just in case something weird happened.

Yep, that is where I was at midnight.

I had one like that my Godmother bought me. She was trying to get me away from snorkel parkas but I only wore it to her house to be nice.
