c2's favorite booties - 29.dec.03

In the summer of 1996, we were living in the Wawona Unit of Yosemite NP. Groceries were miles and miles and a huge traffic jam away in Oakhurst. On one shopping trip Carlton stopped in a the Hi-Tec Outlet store and got a new pair of boots. He liked them so much that the next time we went "to town", he got another pair. He has worn them all day almost everyday ever since. This pair was repaired in Alaska with some sort of roofing cement. But - they are almost ready for retirement. It will be a sad day -- the day that the last pair of most favorite booties goes out in the trash.
