Admit it: some of us look good in rubber boots. Possibly we'd look good in anything, right? But seriously, we rock the barn boots. I know- we're not real farmers. We're just practicing.
I wonder if we'll ever be able to take the little townie dog off the leash out here. We tried it last summer but he took off and ran for the pasture, where luckily, he did not get his head kicked in by an irate mare. He's not by nature a dog who stays by our side; he's very strong willed. I don't want him to get his head kicked in. So he's staying on the leash for a while longer. Little monster.

I love that little monster.
KC wants rubber boots in the worst way. I dunno why. She is so NOT a farmer, on any level.
I'm still waiting for my rain boots. At the shoe store in the mall they have zebra print ones.
I love that little monster and that's why he's gotta stay on his leash and not get his head kicked in by a larged hooved mammal!
I know why she wants rubber boots. They're so darn good lookin.
Zebra print rubber boots!!!!!!
(She'll need em when I have my own farm y'know. She ain't no farmer but must have the boots if she wants to hang!)
I couldn't wear rubber boots...my feet would turn into blocks of ice and crack away....even the rubber soles of my Chuck Taylors make my feet cold...they can only be worn in summer! I, too, wish I could let my little moster off the leash...but she would be gone, gone, gone after the first interesting smell...
hope you feeling a bit better.
i am with dilling on the rubber boots, they freeze my feet too, even with thermal socks an insoles in them!
rubber boots must have felt insoles or you will freeze. I keep them in there year round- they're just more comfortable that way.
But yeah, cold is an issue. If I was outside regularly instead of attempting to change the world with words I'd be in long johns and thermal coveralls until May!
In my younger days I wore them because I was too lazy to dodge cow pods.
Just rinse em with a garden hose.
I know, Nolff. That's why they're so awesome.
I was looking for a good quote from Oliver Wendell Douglas (Green Acres) about farming but I couldn't find a good one. I will though. Great boots.
I have a pair with a pucci type print! My friend Glen says I am going to scare the horses with them!
We call them Wellington boots (wellies) here. I have no idea why. The last time I wore them was when we had to put on hard hats and traipse through the mud to insepct our new house being built. They hurt, A LOT. Mind you G did point out when we got back to the site office that I had them on the wrong feet!
Tod- snicker!!
Cindy- see now you are a chic hick!
The boots--well, we have 'em here, too, to keep the snakes away from the kids' ankles when they go trekking in the woods.
You do them boots proud, but that antenna on top of your head is kind of bent--maybe you want to look into that.
Ha! I wondered who'd be the first one to notice the tassel stuck to the top of my hat!
Therese wins!
hey! I saw the antenna,er tassle, too...I just didn't realize there was anything out of the ordinary there...I have one on ALL my hats, unless they have fringy-type stuff...or jester "horns." I did just finish a knitted hat with a skull and crossbones like that blanket...interested?
have you read anything over at http://www.greenwellies.typepad.com/
she's a wellington lover, too...
Those boots were certainly made for walkin'.
And for some reason, I kept imagining that little dog getting tossed through the tire swing.
Just me, I guess.
yeharr
I love it that Dillling lives in a world where tassels on hats are perfectly normal. And yes I love the Green Wellies site! And yes, I am interested in a skull and crossbones hat!
I also love it that Pirate noticed the tire swing. I better not pass that dog-through-tire swing idea to the kids though...
Yeah those boots were made for walkin. And muckin.
