why didn't I think of this before?

After living in Pittsburgh for a year and a half, I knew a certain something HAD to be added - rain boots. I've dashed thru too many puddle-filled parking lots, tramped thru too many muddy pumpkin patches, and worried too many times whether my shoes would recover. So with some of my birthday money, I was able to hit a great sale and make my addition. What I DIDN'T expect - that they are also the perfect snow boots. I am pretty sure I have now worn them every single day since our most recent snow dumping and I love it! Now, granted, they aren't essentially warm, but they do keep my pants & feet dry and I know that all they take is a wipe of a cloth and they are as clean as new. So, I sure am thankful I finally made this (duh!) discovery! Now I just need some for the Gman. These ones are on his birthday wish list. :-)
