"These Boots Were Made For Walkin!"

While looking for some ski jackets, I discovered a terrific consignment shop on the corner of Montezuma and Guadalupe. Didn't find a jacket, but DH found one for himself and he's now skiing the slopes. I continue to look for a pair of red cowboy boots.  The ones I am really lusting for are custom-made and cost $1200.  I think I'll pass on those and try to find some "gently used" ones altho they're hard to find and fit, or so I've been told.

The shop has EVERYTHING! Clothes, furniture, china, paintings...you name it. Everything except red cowboy boots in my size!  I'll keep looking!

    What a display, what choice! These sort of boots always look uncomfortable to me but they can't be - there would surely not be so many in the world! Love the shot, Kate.

    Sounds like an amazing and very interesting shop - carefully designed to part people from their money.
    There's a pair of boots on the second shelf (4th from left) that look as though the wearer was rocking back on his heels but the pairs I really like are on the third shelf, with toes together and heels apart just as they might be worn by someone. Actually, the more I look the more I notice . . .
