Cowboy Boot Treasure Hunt

I like Austin, not just for all the chorizo tacos and free wifi …but because it’s a big city that keeps its sense of possibility.

My last trip to Austin was in October. Here are a few photos I took at Uncommon Objects. I go every time I’m in town, even if my suitcase is full.

(You can see more photos of Uncommon Objects here.)

Texas Traditions

When the Boot & Saddlemaker Round-Up is over, I always have one more thing to look forward to…and that’s my visit with Lee and Carrlyn Miller at Texas Traditions in Austin, TX.

My visits have a nice worn-in feeling about them now. Lee asks me if I want coffee and pours it at the same time…because he knows that I always stay for a least two cups. This time a took a little video footage…”tracing” the origin of a custom fit.

I head back home tomorrow.
