Pedicure Heaven

I had posted this on Face Book yesterday but figured it needed a spot on my blog.  As I had said on an earlier blog, my toes were so happy to finally get back into sandals and see the sun, but they were a bit "toothie" as I really needed a pedicure, and paint job.
The Super  Wal-Mart in Casa Grande has a Nails Only shop, that when I have passed could see it is very busy and has about 10 or 12 employees. About half male and half female and I found out they are all from Viet Nam.....some, who can not even speak English. There is no service desk at all and so when I first walked one day, I had to look around and try to find out how to get an appointment. Quickly a fellow came up to me and advised that you just walk in and someone will help you, no appts allowed....same as the hair salon.... So today I walked in , with my toes wiggling in excitement.
It was wonderful.... My fellow was named Louis, his birth name I could not even understand, but it did have a "looo" sound in it , so I imagine that is why someone decided he should be called Louis.
He took a full hour and he worked on my toes for about 30 mins, then my whole foot was sanded, buffed and massaged. Next my legs were massaged, pounded, lubricated and hot stones rubbed all over them and the last 5 mins were spent painting......An hour of heaven....and all for only $20 plus tip.
