Camp Shooz

Mike Kelsey, famous backpacker and climber, suggests carrying a pair of shoes to wear around camp. I picked up these TOMS a few years ago for $2.00 and have been pleased with their longevity. But the last year or so the mice have favored the left one and, worst of all, they've taken on an odour.

Among the myriad tasks to complete while in town was/is to find their replacement. Today, car registration and a meeting with a Dakini are taking precedent. First things first! Yah!

 

Suitably Shod

The White's slip on like kid gloves. You pick the style and send a tracing of your foot. Then it's back and forth -- they pay the postage -- until you're satisfied. Every time I put them on I think, "These boots are nice!"

OMG! It IS curved!!

(what does it mean?)

The chair (the boots are on) was "worked" by Sophie, my cat, now dead these eight years or so. Here's a detail from the above photo that sort of captures her mein.

Ah, found it! A mergers-and-acquisitions specialist, she particularly enjoyed hostile takeovers.

In Her Prime

Why waste The Rolls (Royce) on the vacuity of mall-world? This pair of Eddie Bauer-esque Volkswagens showed up to suffice for trodding der boring-und-mundane.

And what is there to do in town but....dance? So far I've found three different groups at three different senior/community centers.

This pair of humble wannabes appeared, on sale, for $2.00. They fit perfectly.
