    Winter gloves

    They do not breathe. They work more like the VBL Tom talked about. Water trapped between your hand and the glove acts as an insulating layer. I got tired of trying different "waterproof" gloves and I can't stand bulky gloves. I've used them in cold, windy, wet, and snowy weather down to...

    Women's light and heavy winter gloves.

    I use neoprene diving gloves in the winter. A little hard to get on and off, but they fit snug and have good grip.

    Practical Tree Repair

    I did some bridge grafting on a hundred year old apple tree. It's a boundary tree. The neighbor cut all the branches off, salted the ground and girdled it. I grafted eight whips across the girdle. It lives. Apple trees are vigorous :)

    Amazing trees!

    The land was leveled for the buildings 50+ years ago. About ten years ago the stem on the left was removed. The stem on the right is periodically topped for power lines above. Trimmed it away from the house and removed a limb over the house drop.
