Made for Walkin'

We're heading back to Minnesota later this month to visit family. (The stoic Scandinavian branch of the family tree.) This portrait was taken on our last visit to Minneapolis just over a year ago. It's Paul from Schatzlein Saddle Shop, a family run business that recently celebrated it's 100 year anniversary. That's right, I said 100 years. Paul is third generation Schatzlein and he helped me fit and order a fine pair of handmade Lucchese Black Cherry Buffalo Classics.

I'll be wearing them when we visit him again on this trip.
