I would recommend you do the same thing in your work boots. Yard work is good for the soul. No better way to break in a pair of boots.

Red-Blacks...........

Rob, my garage is full of Texaco items, two old Gilbarco gas pumps from the early 50's that I am restoring and lots of old original Texaco items as well as some repro stuff.

Got another babysitting job, son is heading to the sandbox for another tour for a year or more. He asked if I'd look after his C4, his wife and kids will have enough to do around the house when he's gone, this would be just one less chore for them to keep up. And of course I said no problem, even wants me to drive it around a bit.........which I can readily oblige.

Had all four of our girls home for Christmas. Doesn't get any better than that.

They weren't work boots. They were a pair of Caiman cowboy boots.

Well, since I have become both the man and the woman of the house, I got a set of pots and pans, a carpet shampooer, and a vibrator.

Just kidding, ..............I didn't get a shampooer.

Actually I did.

I got to go to Virginia, close on my Mom's house, finish cleaning it out, load up everything that I could in a 26 ft. Penske truck and drive it back to Ga for New Years eve. Now I have to put it all in a storage unit tomorrow, and some in my house. Was not the greatest holiday season, but I'm not dead or in jail, so there is the positive side!

I got the Brahmin Asher Melbourne tote that I've been wanting. I also got a bunch of gift cards so I was able to buy the matching wallet. I'm fancy now.

Real leather embossed to simulate alligator, it's very nicely done. I've got another one that I've has for years and it's held up great.

I was wondering how they held up.
Alligator lasts forever, but if they're leather, they'll last too.
They are very attractive accessories.

Wife bought me a wallet and my Mom made a donation that provides chickens and ducks to an emerging village down in Belize.
