Paratroop Boots

Yup, another new pair of boots.  Had been looking at these paratroop boots by Bates for some time.  I finally had some time where I could order and take delivery of these boot.

Side zipper, 11" boots with a polishable toe.  Felt a little festive when I wore my red digital camo BDU pants.  I have an old pair of the boots that are very similar, but they are old and starting to degrade, enough that I do not wear them.

BBD's

Had an awesome bacon-cheeseburger at BBD's in the Palace Station. The burger accompanied by crinkle fries. I had it washed down with 2 pints of "The Drift" ale from Yorkshire Square Brewery in Torrence, CA.

Ujfortunately, the price was awesomely high - 27$.

Las Vegas Bound

One the road again.  Drove to Las Vegas with cousin for his West Coast Pipe Show.  Has breakfast/lunch in Williams, AZ.

Got off the highway to check out the "almost" ghost town of Chloride, AZ.  Used the facilities and bought a book at the little general store and Tourist Information.  I had sto[[ed in this town on a previous trip, several years ago.

We got lost in Las Vegas rush-hour traffic.  Eventually got to the hotel,checked in and moved into the room.  Visited, had a couple bottle of beer and slice of pizza.  Then I hit the sack.
