The Great Foot Adventures!

One day I was sitting around watching tv, and saw a credit card commercial where a little boy gave his father a stuffed monkey before he left on a work trip. The father took pictures of the monkey at various locations and sent them back to his family. Then, shortly thereafter, there was an Expedia commercial where pictures were taken of a gnome at various locations. I decided something must be done!

I was about to embark on a vacation to California, followed by a work trip to Longview, Texas for 6 weeks. I decided that I must find my stuffed monkey or gnome that would accompany all of my pictures. Imagine me, a 6' hefty load of meat, walking down the street with a stuffed animal... Only one thing came to mind, VOMIT! A gnome everywhere I went? EVEN WORSE!!! Just then it hit me... The one thing that I would always have on me, always with me wherever I went, and just short of brilliant in pictures was: MY FOOT!!! And so it is that I post my first set in the series The Great Foot Adventures!!!



This first image was taken on Huntington Beach in March of 2008 with weak sauce camera phone. I knew I was onto something when I sent it out and got immediate responses from everyone I sent it to!








Just a short drive away from the little city in the middle of the nowhere in Texas, is Lousiana... This little gem was taken overlooking Shreveport at the Red River Outlets.














My foot over Texas!!! At the top of the giant tower in Arlington Texas resides my foot overlooking Six Flags Over Texas. My foot is taller than the Superman Tower of Power!!!







The 4th of July is one of the best holidays of the year for delicious barbecue, amazing watermelon, and well, holding sparklers with your feet too! Is there anything more patriotic that you've ever seen?!





As you embark on a road trip one thing is for certain, you WILL get a craving! Well, sometimes when your foot gets a craving, there is only one way to fix, the same way I heard Harold and Kumar did it (not that I'd know though). My foot fixed it's craving and scarfed down a load of sliders!



There is something about going barefoot at a wedding! When my cousin Jim got married in August of 2008 in Kansas City, my foot embarked upon a new mission. I couldn't very well stand on the table at the wedding dinner, so I brought the glory of the table to my foot! It's so lushly decorated with flower petals that the candle light brought out even more!





Matt has no idea what is about to hit him!!! Taken from the inside of an amazing red Dodge Charger somewhere between Chicago and Kansas City, my lovely foot is about to whack the back of an unsuspecting victims head.


There is only one bad thing about the Waffle House: WHERE'S THE DANG FRUIT ON THE WAFFLES??? Who am I kidding though, it is a staple of amazing breakfasty goodness from the Midwest which my long skinny toe nail from my big toe greatly appreciated!
Stay Tuned for More Coming Soon!!!
