New at Beaton’s

Tom Beaton and the Cub Scouts started making snow shoes this weekend. Tom demonstrated how to steam bend wood, use a form and rivet the ends. Webbing to follow.

Fresh Snow
A quick dusting yesterday. No wind at all with drifting ice. A touch of breeze would have tempted me.

As always you can find more photos and larger sizes at Flickr.

One thought on “New at Beaton’s”

  1. If this snow trend continues this winter, you all will need snowshoes around Beaton’s. Did Tom ever think of making tennis rackets too?
