Official Christmas Whatcha Get Thread

I've read it , I'm a huge fan of the golden age of exploration stories , things like Shackleton , everything artic, and especially Africa / South America stuff .
Cape Sabine is a great tale of how to do it wrong.
Have you read anything of the Karluk? Another gripping tragic tale with many fatal blunders.
 
Picked up a new pair of ONeals sierra adventure boots.
They came in a light brown till i hit them with mink oil.
Now they are like a dark coffee colour.

Can’t wait to get them broken in.
 
Late Christmas gift showed in the mail , issue #8 of Hodinkee . For watch nuts it’s a periodic published treat .

Allegedly my Ski-Doo is supposed to arrive this week. Merry merry to Meme.

Just finished new flooring in bedroom, painted and new bed put together (douglas.ca). Adjustable king with 2 xl twins. 3500 and love it.

Other than that my best present is a car wash card. I hate the amount of salt they put down, down here
 
Yup , another tale full of bad decisions, poor luck and some serious mismanagement.
There is a lot of these stories , somewhat unfortunately.

I think it was in one of the books on the Karluk that I came across a great quote by Roald Amundsen "adventure is just bad planning"

Pics? I'm in the market for new boots. Are they any good to walk in?
 
Very easy to walk in, When they get broken in they should be even more comfortable
