It always looks about the same, but I usually blog about my first day to use the snowshoes each winter.
We got more snow overnight here, and there are maybe 10 inches on the ground. You can see flakes in the air in this picture.
I did about a half mile, which was plenty for the first outing. And the wind was pretty cold. It was all overcast, so there are no shadows to help you see the tracks. But if you can tell, yes, I was using the wood snowshoes. The bindings are shot. Cheapest new ones I can find are $50! I'm pondering options and temporarily still using duct tape for repairs, but it's iffy. I do like the wood ones better than the small foam ones although those have their purposes.
The sky looks pretty much the same as the ground without the line of tracks!
I did a little bit of work today, but it was really a non-starting day for me. I played my game more than I should have and didn't do much.
I think maybe I didn't snowshoe at all last winter. We didn't get much accumulation. At any rate, I didn't blog about it.

Hello Joan, a half mile of snowshoeing can be exhausting, especially in deep snowshoeing. I look forward to getting mine a try this winter, but for today's adventures, I used my new-used xc skis for the first time. As a matter of fact, it was my first ever xc skiing excursion. I hope to do more than the .60mi path around our property. Today was a good day 😊
