It’s a sad thing when a relationship is over.
We had some Great times together. He was right next to me almost every day of my life for the past 5 years. He worked next to me every work-day. Every flight I took, he was right there. Every mountain I climbed, he climbed it with me.
After 5 years together, we I have decided that he won’t be joining me on my next trip ( a Caribbean cruise tomorrow ).
Of course, I’m talking about my canvas “Man-bag” with the Indian patch. Who did you think I was talking about?
I found him at Rugby, on the sale rack no less. Heavy canvas/ recycled sail cloth, leather strap and buckles. And the price? 22 BONES. Un-freaking-believable!..How could I pass that up? That patch, I sewed that on myself a few weeks later. It’s my very favorite part.
Here are just a smattering of the numerous travels we shared……Jamie was behind the camera in all these pics
- Alberquere
- El Paso
- Key West
- Las Vegas
- Maui
- Pheonix
- Santa Fe
- St. Croix
- St. Louis
It’s time to part ways. I just don’t think he is in shape enough to travel anymore. In actuality, he’s kinda gross, just down-right grungy dirty,( dirt, chocolate, blood?, red wine?, grass, indigo, possible elephant dung – just don’t ask – ….) He’s supposed to be a little weathered……but not “sticky”.
No worries though, I have an absolutely unused exact “Back-Up” ready to go. Remember that they were only 22 bucks? and the patch 10.
I have duplicates of several of my favorite things.
Not…Weird…At…All.
The Cavender Diary will take a brief hiatus, while Jamie and I take a well-deserved vacation…….Unless I can find enough bandwidth to drop a new post.
LOL!!! I think this is AWESOME!!! Enjoy your cruise!!!
Definitely not weird. I recently found a duplicate to my favorite dress and snatched it right up! You have to be prepared in case something bad happens to your favorite things, right?!
You guys have fun on the vacations! I will miss you and the “cavender diary” but I know that you need some time off!
Did you throw away the old one? ‘Cause I know someone that would love a sticky old retired bag 🙂
You’re so cute. I NEVER get rid of anything. It’s obsessive. I almost need profesional help. hehehe
