Anyone know of a high-end boot maker (other than Wesco, Viberg, Clinch) that would make an Engineer Boot with a western toe?

Brian the Bootmaker can make basically anything you want

[UnTucked]

Now that I think about it, I guess you mean "ready made"…

[Giles]

Nope

Not always the case… I asked him for a pair of boots he had made before, with a very “seemingly simply” upgrade and he said he was not able to do it...

I know he had made western boots however - I believe he made a pair of Snakeskin for a client. I seem to remember them being snip toe though, not sure if you want a Cuban toe, or snip.

Yeah, I would totally recommend contacting him if you're contemplating custom…

Too bad you didn't ask this while in LA, you could have gone to his shop

[Giles]

Not for me….....

[UnTucked]

Oh, ok

The wife and I are looking to take our Anniversary trip somewhere new in Early June of this year.

We are trying to find somewhere we have not been, has a lot of activities, and is not ridiculously expensive to spend 3-4 days at.

We live at the beach, so beach destinations are out.

My top choices:

Portland
Los Angeles
Charleston, SC
Taos, New Mexico

I have been to Charleston and Taos, but the wife has not.

Thinking activities such as:
Kayaking, Hiking, maybe an Amusement Park (we don’t have them in Alabama - big surprise I know lol)
Dining, shopping, museums, etc.

Where do you guys like to travel to with your significant other?

Thanks!

Really liked Denver. Go see a concert at Red Rocks,go to Boulder to Rocky Mtn National Park or down to Colorado Springs to the Garden of the Gods. Lots of great restaurants. Easy to fly into.

@Appfaff My wife and I went to Alaska (the Anchorage area) last fall and it was one of the best trips I've ever been on.

I don't know what your budget is, but I'm sure Alaska has activities that would fit pretty much anything.

Some of the things we did that we loved there:

Lots of hiking
Took a helicopter trip and walked a glacier
Took a scenic train tour to another city (Seward)
Ate a ton of great food

[Appfaff]

Thanks @Jett129 and @DStauffer - both good recommendations

If you have the time and inclination, go to SE Asia.  I had a blast in Hanoi.
If you want the US, try the Grand Canyon because I found that pretty interesting yet ridiculously hot and I can deal with the heat.
