Pahk my Feet in Hah-vad Yahd

So my friends in Boston were strolling along Newberry Ave. and decided to turn on Clarendon. So there they are, walking along when they came across the FLOR Store.

And then they saw the nice picture in the win - BAM! - it hit them, they knew those feet! - the feet on the sign in the window - from somewhere.

Looked a little closer and realized those teal colored piggies were none other than Finley Skertich's. And the big kickers to her right are Dad's flippers.

My piggies are plastered across 21 store windows in 18 different cities and two different countries (I'm kicking it up on the window in Toronto, Canada as well). So if you're in the Big Apple, D.C., Hot-lanta, the Big D (Dallas), Denver, W. Hollywood, San Francisco and all the way from Seattle to Miami and you see some tootsies you recognize, you can say you knew me way back when.
