This story is rather interesting so I feel ever so enticed to tell it to you all.
It all starts on Friday evening when i started getting phone calls that my flight to Austin was canceled. So i would rebook and then get another call that the flight was canceled due to weather. Yet, I was on the ground in Manhattan and the weather was great! This raised a red flag though as I knew nasty weather was on the way.

11am came and the ground was covered in snow and it didn’t let up. 650+ flight were canceled in the NYC area and for some reason I was booked on a random 2pm flight to L.A. and it never canceled. I missed my Austin connection at LAX because of the plane de-icing. Ended up walking down the street in Venice and running into the Toms shoes Staff party and seeing many friends I hadn’t seen since the South Africa Shoe drop the year before. I declared it as a Christmas Miracle, because there was no way I could have ever planed my night that way.

If your in L.A stop by the Toms Pop up Store in Venice and buy some new
Toms and check out some of my images from South Africa on the walls in the gallery.
