goldwings Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 I am probably cutting it close myself - I will likely reach Penn Station somewhere between 11:45 and 12:50, dependent on which train I do manage to catch - and hope for zero delays.
Bernheels Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 David, Wish I was there with all you great heelers! How many actually showed up?? I hope to be at the next one. Recovery is going well and still wearing heels at home and driving on sales trips. See you all soon and have a blast! Walk tall!! Bernheels
iloveboots Posted March 3, 2012 Author Posted March 3, 2012 Hi Bern, We were a total of 10. We stayed the evening at Club Blu in the Indigo Hotel, had fun there. the 10 of us had fun, the main thing! Not a big turnout considering the projected numbers from the "yes" responses. It was fabulous to meet Arctic for the first time; great to see CrotchhiBoots again; terrific weekend with SpikesMike and Booted at the Colonial House Inn; awesome to reconnect with Hoverfly; and a few newcomers to our group Franny, Jeanette and Forsythia. Today we are "shoe shopping" over to Macys and DSW; may head to Norstroms (good suggestion from Arctic), street heeling pic opportunity! Then tonight at 7pm we are Tillmans at 165 W 26th St. Definitely recommend "Club Blu" in the lobby of the Hotel Indigo (127 W 28th St), Kneehighs. The staff are "high heel friendly" in a big way! Atmsophere is nice and the food tremendous. The owner is Micahel Oldman, and the head waiter is Viktor. The Sea Bass was incredible (3 people had it) and the Tuna Teryaki was absolutely incredible. Great to hear you are on the mend Bern. Hope tonight we are a few more than 10, but whatever the number, we are having a good time! Hoverfly has a few photos to post as do i, will get mine up when I get back home. David "Dress For Your Own Pleasure"

iloveboots Posted March 3, 2012 Author Posted March 3, 2012 Nordstroms Rack proved much better. thanks Arctic for the suggestion! SpikesMike picked up a good deal on a nice pair. And lots of attention from a group of women/girls outside of Nordstroms; lots of pictures and they loved our heels and Boots. Lots of Facebook posts we're sure! Now back at the hotel ready for Tillman's tonight. Will see if we got any pics today from the street heeling walks. There were 6 of us street heeling, iloveboots, hoverfly, spikesmike, booted, crotchiboots and goldwings (from Boston) joined us. Goldwings JG Boots were definitely attention getters!

iloveboots Posted March 3, 2012 Author Posted March 3, 2012 hhboots4me,thanks for the note . see you at Tillmans around 7:30. Right now we know there will be iloveboots, spikesmike, crotchiboots and booted. Hope we have a few more members join us! David "Dress For Your Own Pleasure"
hoverfly Posted March 3, 2012 Posted March 3, 2012 Sadly, I did not get to meet those who showsed up at paddls. But an enviromet like that would have been counterproductive. I am not good with lots of noise, making it hard to get to know people. In which I am disappointed In those who were commited to show up at the Indago but did not show up. The whole event was to meet people in an eviromet for all to sharea common intrest. So next time, be more considerit of those who would like to meet you before going to somthing like Paddles or a another noisy eviroment. With out at least having a drink, or a meet and greet first. Thanks Hello, my name is Hoverfly. I’m a high heel addict…. Weeeeeeeeeee! 👠1998 to 2022!
iloveboots Posted March 3, 2012 Author Posted March 3, 2012 Looks like you made your 5pm train Hoverfly! Cool! And you were moving it pretty good, in heels! Thank you for joining us the past two days. Even though the numbers did not pan out the 10 of us last night and 6 of us today had a great time! Lots of laughs. Lots of interaction with many heel admirers on the streets, especially outside Nordstroms! Cheers! David "Dress For Your Own Pleasure"

Spikesmike, crotchiboots, iloveboots, booted, hhboots4me and a new friend and HHPlace member Thomas from austria. Crotchhiboots got some pics as we were waiting to enter Tillmans at 7pm and will post when he is back home. Thank you everyone who attended. Over the course of the 2 days we had 12 members participate. All 12 of us had fun! Lots of laughs. Lots of memories. and new friendships! All the ingredients for a fun successful heelmeet! Next meet is Tampa, Florida on Saturday, March 10! Lets hope we also discover those same incredible ingredients to a successful meet. i am sure we will! Thank you everyone. Now, time for the photos! Heelmeets at HHPlace are still alive and well David "Dress For Your Own Pleasure"
Arctic Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Ok, another one is in the can! It was good to get to see and hear the people who make up our sandbox in cyberspace. When I was waiting for my car on the way home, I realized that there are not many interests that cover all of the western world, cut through all demographics, and span a large age range - we had people in their twenties and in their seventies participating. However, heels seem to keep you young, as the most senior person would easily pass for someone a decade or two less seasoned. What's all the fuss about?

xray2 Posted March 5, 2012 Posted March 5, 2012 Sorry for not showing up on Saturday. I was really intending to come. However, on Friday night, I Googled for more information about Padles and read the reviews at http://wwww.yelp.com/ I didn't like the "dress code of underwear or less" and the $2 mandatory coat check. I also saw a television ad by Macy's for their "Huge One Day Sale" on Saturday. That changed the probability of bumping into someone who I knew from unlikely to quite possible. So, sleeping on Friday night became near impossible. I had all kinds of thoughts popping up, like there being an undesirable photo of me wearing only an underwear and pair of high heel boots in a basement dungeon (and everyone I know seeing that photo). Then, when my alarm clock went off, I felt very tired. So, I went back to sleep. Again, sorry for not coming. It's quite apparent that at this time, I don't have the kind of courage that those who attended possess. xray2
crotchhiboots Posted March 6, 2012 Posted March 6, 2012 I for one had a wonderful time Friday nite, saw some old friends (Iloveboots) and meet new ones. Saturday"s shopping trip was great and I had a lot of fun with everybody at Tillmans. Crotchhiboots 77r90dL lf

xray2 Posted March 8, 2012 Posted March 8, 2012 Nordstroms Rack proved much better. thanks Arctic for the suggestion! SpikesMike picked up a good deal on a nice pair. And lots of attention from a group of women/girls outside of Nordstroms; lots of pictures and they loved our heels and Boots. Lots of Facebook posts we're sure! Isn't Nordstrom south of the Colonial at 14th Street, while Macy's is north on 34th Street? Did you walk to both? (If you did, wasn't that a lot of walking and were the feet aching???) Just heard that DSW is opening a new store in NYC. That will give Nordstrom and Macys some competition.
iloveboots Posted March 9, 2012 Author Posted March 9, 2012 Here are a few. Not the best but better than nothing. Photo One - SpikesMike in Red/Black Knee High Boots with 5 inch stiletto's and Booted in knee high riding Boots at Club Blu, Indigo Hotel, Friday, March 2/2012, NYC. Photo Two - Friday Night, March 2, at Club Blu, Indigo Hotel. From left to right, Franny, Jeanette and iloveboots Photo Three - SpikesMike on fire hydrant waiting to enter Tillman's on Saturday night, March 3/2012; Booted in riding Boots behind SpikesMike Photo Four - CrotchHiBoots, SpikesMike and iloveboots outside Tillmans on Saturday Night Does anyone have any pictures?

iloveboots Posted March 9, 2012 Author Posted March 9, 2012 Yup, we took the D Train subway between 34th and 14th; then walked back tot he Colonial. Isn't Nordstrom south of the Colonial at 14th Street, while Macy's is north on 34th Street? Did you walk to both? (If you did, wasn't that a lot of walking and were the feet aching???)
