When a friend from Canada sent us heavy firefighter rubber hip boots, we were pleasantly surprised and very happy. So special rubber hip boots are very specific. Samantha stepped into them even on the same day the package arrived. Around the creek on her garden had to prune trees so she took advantage nice weather for this event. She took with her a ladder and a saw and she went to work. The creek was deep enough water so the new rubber hip boots were for such work that great. Colorful boots were so much water in the creek useless.
