Yesterday I posted the photo of the Vintner's gate, the one that took months of litigation before the case was settled. There I was, the artist and his gate! I included me in the photo! Black socks and sandals and short pants! I should be on the cover of a fashion magazine!
I like short pants. If I wouldn't be arrested I would wear no pants at all. I wear them from the first sign of Spring until October when the winter rains come and dictate my fashion sense.
My feet are big. Size 13D and I am very hard on a pair of shoes. In reality I don't own a single pair of shoes. I do own one pair of boots but almost never wear them. My feet are very tough.

| Time for new sandals? nah! Notice the socks are clean! |
I wear sandals every day, rain or sun or snow and ice. I even own what I consider my "dress" pair of sandals, clean ones at least that I don't weld in. Yes, sandals and black socks! Most of my socks have holes in them in a particular pattern across the top caused by the splatter from the welder. The tops of my feet have little burn scars from the little plasma burn arcs that have melted through my socks. It doesn't hurt.
It is not easy buying sandals and almost impossible to buy shoes although I admit I never look for them. Sandals are pretty much sold "in season" only, especially when you are hunting for my size. When I find them, in early May or April I usually buy four pairs all at once, and all exactly the same.
I prefer the "river sandals" with the Velcro straps.
My entire clothes budget for the average year should put me on the cover of a lot of fashion magazines.
I discovered long ago that it makes no difference what I wear. By 10 o'clock in the morning I am dirty.
More of my fashion wear and some naked pictures of me can be found HERE that is so funny, we'll see how many "hits" this gets!
