On my bucket list has always been that I make it to the Aran Islands in the west of Ireland in Galway Bay. Well, this past summer of ’09, my best friend and I finally made it there. There are two ways to get to the Islands: one is to take a ferry; the other is to charter a small plane. We chose the latter. On the way out to the plane, the pilot called out my name and announced that I’d be sitting next to him up front! Very cool! So … this is a pic of the ol’ dogs in the absolute best and hardiest boots in the world. These Blunnies have been with me through many a trip across the universe and I know that they’ll be with me on many more. They’re my absolute favourite footwear and I never refrain from pitching their merits to all my buddies.
