Three years ago I went to Key West for 3 days/2 nights with my South Florida History class.  I went on a private tour of President Truman's Little White House, ate 4 slices of key lime pie in under 48 hours, and searched unsuccessfully for a book on African Americans in 19th century Key West for my SMP called Forgotten Legacy.  I fell in love with Key West almost like I fell in love with New Orleans, but in three years I haven't been back, for one reason or another.

I also bought a pair of sandals called Kinos.  These were the most comfortable sandals you could buy for under $10 and you could only get them in Key West.  I've worn them everywhere for the last three years and they're just now falling apart.  I was going to buy myself another pair before the cruise at the end of June.  Lo and behold, I find they've gone out of business.  I can't even find them on Ebay, not in my size anyway.

If you could find me a pair of these sandals in any color (but preferably black) you would be my hero.

I'll keep an eye out for you. My favorite T-shirt has an Angel on the front and two of them on the back. When I discovered Liquid Blue had retired the pattern, I was very disappointed.

Another pair of the Kinos? Maybe for your birthday present. :-)

Hey, Jenna Fischer from the Office mentioned Kino's in her blog, and it made me think of you :).
