For years we spent the better part of a Sunday afternoon freezing outdoors while watching our local Santa Claus parade. Our children loved going and knew that mom and dad would do their very best to keep them warm while they were sitting on the street curbs waiting with great anticipation.
Back in those days we did not have the technically advanced materials that are all the rage today. We had to make due with the woolen mitts, hats, scarves and blankets to keep the chill from ruining our day.
Fast Forward to today and there are so many materials that have been developed to combat the cold and wet weather that typically happens in my part of the world.
Try as much as we like, in winter when the temperatures hover at freezing mark or below, you need some special items to keep you comfortable and dry! Snow storms, shovelling the walkways and drives takes time whether you do it with a shovel or a snowblower. So it's best to be prepared.
It doesn't matter how long you are out there, you'll know it's not summer and the cold just might have you thinking twice about going out there. But it doesn't have to be like that.
Preparation is key to being outdoors in the inclement weather! It's amazing how much you can actually do when the need arises if you have a great pair of gloves in your winter arsenal. You might even find that you enjoy the cold weather because you are prepared and the cold just doesn't seem to bother you so much.
Kids just never seem to get enough of the snow when it's flying and coming down. They will grab whatever is handy and go out to play for hours. Mom and Dad need a little more coaxing to want to join in. That's another place where being ready for the worst can make the time out there much more enjoyable for all. Memories are made when the whole family goes out to build that snow fort or have that one great snowball fight.
Back to being prepared. A good pair of winter gloves are a must have. My son, who happens to love being outdoors at all times, has requested a special pair of gloves this year. Not only are they great for keeping your fingers warm and cozy, but they also let you get some serious work done too. And if you are one to be teathered to your phone, these gloves even allow you to use your touchscreens without having to remove the glove from your hand. In these times this seems to be a must for many people.
If you are an outdoors person I know that you will enjoy having your hands warm and dry while your dexterity is still intact. These IRONCLAD RANCHWORX gloves are an Amazon Choice with over 2,000 reviews. In the past month over 400 pairs have been purchased. That says a lot!
When crazy winter weather arrives and you find yourself being in the middle of it all, wouldn't it be nice to have a great pair of gloves to keep your fingers nimble and flexible enough to do just about anything? Snow storms can be notorious for knocking tree limbs down. Someone has to go out and take care of those things. If it's you, then you are prepared with your Ironclad Ranchworx gloves!
