House sitting, nice to have the internet and catch up on forum fun. Just starting to think about what kind of shape my leather boots are in. I think they will hold up one more season. Working on getting on the grid, no power for seven years. Hopefully have it soon, then maybe internet. Tele on.

Teleking cooool as a cucumber replies....."T-h-I-s" as he twists the boots like a dishrag and water drips out of them and lets go.....The boots rebound with awesome energy.....Oh yeah....energy....life.....organic....oh yeah....so it begins....Teleman

Telekid first photo is on Andrews double buckle leather....Both he and I are looking for a lighter leather boot but will say those boots are and or were excellent!!!!!!! Telewheels skis Vectors and Switchbacks....We consider that very big and confining equipment for what we do...But it does work....and Ron he is back at @ 85 %....Out frost is probably gonna hit Saturday....TM
