[QUOTE="pdfangus, post: 478772, member: 6543"] Well I am going to try to not take umbrage at that remark from the land where we held the yankees out for four years at the Rappahannock River. But it does get cold enough here that it is difficult for a man to make out with gum boots. And it is ocassionally wet enough, though not lately, that we will have some mud and bovine generated fertilizer which necessitates putting some kind of protective foot wear over our normal footwear. In this ocassion we get what are called overshoes. Several companies make them in several sizes. You select an appropriate size and purchase a pair. One for each foot. They can be tight to slip over your existing footwear. to remedy that situation you acquire a couple of plastic bags, yall do have a wallmart or something round there somewhere i hope, and you put one bag over the outside of each shoe or boot and then it will relatively easily slide into the overshoe. repeat on other foot. some will even use a little baby powder in the overshoe to similarly ease the process. I myself find this step unnecessary. As an alternative you can put some wet cow crap in the overshoe as lubricant but that somewhat defeats the purpose. [/QUOTE]
