Being barefoot 24\7, no matter where you go, is a real blessing!   Nobody seem to even notice - except one last in a mall.   She walked past me with two small kids, caught my eye, pointed at my feet, and then gave me the thumbs up!
I don't even think about being barefoot at all.

On my way back to the house, I took a few minutes of video just to show what that looks like in my mom's suburb.

A day like this totally exhausts my mom, but she really enjoyed the eating out.
