They really protected your hands when sliding down the wood-sided toboggan slides, which were built by the CCCs. I have often wondered why people in Michigan don't wear them. Ah, memories!DIRRC Book Clubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06200222433078431986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30802444.post-27738681069864113522011-12-17T06:34:55.491-06:002011-12-17T06:34:55.491-06:00Thanks for the dissertation in mittenology.

I don't think they would go over well with most of us hillbillys since it sorely restricts nose-picking and obscene finger gestures!Alan Ghttp://www.writingtomyself.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30802444.post-58936306539093745002011-12-15T08:23:38.502-06:002011-12-15T08:23:38.502-06:00Cool, I recognized the mitten right away -- as the...Cool, I recognized the mitten right away -- as the state of Maine.<br /><br />Just kidding, I know Wisconsin when I see it (even tho' I've never been to either Wisconsin or Michigan in my life, which I admit is a serious gap in my geographic background).Tomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08611148987085476580noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30802444.post-25829421825416998422011-12-15T07:51:48.758-06:002011-12-15T07:51:48.758-06:00Thanks for the history lesson.

Perhaps they should have ceded it to Wisconsin long ago.<br /><br />My Dad was born in Fon du Lac, but he graduated from the University of Michigan, so i understand the rivalry a bit.<br /><br />I bought my two grandsons packers hats. They have become big fans since I tolk them Uncle Herbert Nichols was on the 1920-21 Squad. Got David one too.<br /><br />Meanwhile, my granddaughter Ameila is traveling to Atlanta for the Chick-Fillet bowl. UVA is playing there as a consolation for losing to VA Tech. All football here this December. <br /><br />Dianneschmidleysscribblins,wordpress.comhttp://schmidleysscribblins.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.com
