Sprawl Mart

I found the above image on Infowars and I couldn't resist posting it. I'd give credit where credit is due but no creator was listed. Anyway, this image sums up the many things that I hate about Walmart. Nothing like selling patriotic images manufactured by slave labor in foreign countries in a place that is frequented by illegal laborers with their new found "wealth" i.e. more money than they'd make in Mexico. Walmart likes nothing better than to build meccas by using acres of land only to find that they've outgrown the space and that they'd like to relocate to a bigger place. Hamburg, New York is a prime example of this. Dig the portly Buffalo type peeps in the background of the image!

Winter Wunderland

Check it out--nearly 3.5 feet of snow in my hood. Awesome snowshoeing weather! I feel like a little kid on a snow day! Yeah, I dug my shiznit out pretty much by myself. The military neighbor dude chimed in at the end but it was all good.

What up my peeps? After a long absence I'm back in black. Literally, my long underwear purchased for snowshoeing purposes is black. I just returned from a quick jaunt around the property where I live. The trickiest part is getting the shoes on and off. Once you get moving it's fairly easy. While it's one of the easier winter sports, you definitely heat up fast and you do sweat. Because no one has been out to play in the snow, I had the opportunity to 'break trail' . I loved stomping around in snow. Some of the neighbors peered out their windows to watch. Thankfully I didn't fall on my dupa. I finally realized why I didn't like to go out and play in the snow as a kid, we didn't have the tricked out technology! My long underwear is really thin but super warm. My snowpants are just right--ample insulation and venting slots, not too bulky. And my fleece vest kept me warm. I highly recommend this winter sport. Relatively easy to do and not a major financial investment.
