Red Wing boots, made to kick ass.

Most know me, as the Converse or Doc Martin guy, since I have not left my house, for the past twenty years, without my beloved high-top Chucks or my 80's era Docs.

A recent foot injury had forced me into exploring different shoe brands, because I needed something that was actually comfortable and supporting, to my aching ankle and foot.

I came across Red Wing Shoes. They look cool, the company has been in business for over a century and as an added bonus, the boots are hand made, in the USA.
They come with a life time warranty on the top leather part, free shoe laces for life and re-soling them will run you $80.
They are super comfortable.

Granted, they offer a cheaper Chinese version, don't buy them, just man up and do the right thing.
I believe that the American workforce should support the American workforce, while we still have one.

Mulholland Bridge in 1942 and now. Bill Armbrust 1935 Roadster.

I stumbled across this article and pictures on Rik Hoving's site, while doing some research on 35-36 Ford Customs.
This picture of Bill Armbrust's 35 Roadster, stopped me in my tracks, not only because, it's a superb car, also because the location this picture was taken at,  is very familiar to me (I live 5 minutes from there).

I had taken a picture last year of my car in the same location, and I stood exactly where the photographer stood facing south towards Hollywood in 1942.
This is the Mulholland Bridge in Hollywood CA.

I get a kick out of finding stuff like that.
