– I’m just gonna come out and say it… this is what Lucchese boots should cost.
– This pair of boots reminds me of a lucky penny you’d find on the street, and that makes me happy.
– Best buy. Every guy should own a pair of black cowboy boots. Wear ’em, thrash ’em …don’t get attached. Leave them behind somewhere, on the way to someplace else.
Today, I am at the Boot & Saddle Maker Round-Up in Wichita Falls, TX. I am having a wonderful time. I’m posting photos here.
I miss last year’s show. Boy, did I miss it.

I just added Rick Roman (Eugene, OR) to my bootmaker list… and I wanted you to see this video I found on his website, romangoshoes.com.
I made my hotel reservations for Wichita Falls, this October.
I’m going to the 2010 Boot and Saddlemaker Round-Up. I missed last year’s show…boy, did I miss it.
Tonight, my mind is kinda wandering off… I’m wondering who else will make the trip? Everybody, I hope.
I’m thinking about my life list. Maybe this year, I can sneak off and learn a bit about saddles? Do I keep a list of all the hands I shake? …that seems a little weird. Can I come up with the money in the next few months for a really great camera? Should I drive up from Austin… or down from OKC? I owe Mark Candela a steak dinner… I should fix that. Maybe a live Twitter feed? Oh yeah, cricket season… ugh, cricket season. Remember the year we shared the hotel with that clown convention?
Unsuitable for airport security and spandex… otherwise bid, buy and ROCK ON!
