Balboa in Boots

FEATURED: CAT Footwear & Balboa Park
PHOTOGRAPHY & COMMENTARY: Allie Merrick

The day is hot
And while heels I've got -
a rather cute pair,
it's my boots I wear.

My camera in one hand
and my drink in the other,
I snap picture after picture
and ask the bartender for another.

Architecture and the arts
are displayed in equal parts
on a canvas of grass and trees
accented by a sun soaked breeze.

For the record, I've sworn off mimosas for all eternity
and have pledged my eternal allegiance to bellinis.
