After our mother passed away, I found a box full of our baby shoes! And these were the best shape of all of them. I searched through old photos and saw that my brother Ray had worn these. Probably only once because they soles are barely used. amazing!

Those Sandals look just like the ones that I have on right now! :^D Well mine are bigger! Very cool Peggyann, thanks for showing! :^)
These are amazing, no doubt! I think these may have hurt his feet, there are small cuts in the leather on each side, as if his feet were too large for them, perhaps. Thank you for your kind comments!
They are so well kept, they look new! Good for your mom for taking good care of them.
I think my mom thought she would save them for her next children and promptly forgot all about them, lol. The other shoes I found were all my baby shoes mostly and so beat up. These were the only decent ones. And I love what you said, Bill, about how you have on a pair right now in your size of course! You'd be surprised at how tiny these shoes are. I may have a photo of them in my hand.
Hey Peggyann, here's a link to the post I just put up, in the last photo, I'm sitting on the bench with the Sandals that look like the ones you posted:

Yeah, thanks Peggy, it's fun posting things, even when the collection, is Memories! :^D Yes we enjoyed our Weekend away, but every day's a Vacation, when you're Retired! :^)
Billretirecoll, I agree! I love being retired. It has freed up my time so that now I can paint, travel, go "junk" hunting, metal detecting, eat out and goof off! Its a blast. Have a great day!
