SENIOR FEET: REINVENTING SHOE SALES

My senior feet are on a mission: long walks over rugged trails. Call it hiking if you must, but ‘long walk’ works too. Hiking has intent. My intention is breaking a good sweat out in parts of nature that need particular shoes. Maybe ‘hiking boots?’

PRACTICE TIME FOR UNCONSCIOUS COMPETENCY

Practice time doesn’t have to bore you half to death, but it should. If you have the notion to do something hard, and do it consistently, it takes practice. Do it with no practice and what do you get? Surprised if it works out, but not surprised if it doesn’t.

FAMILY HISTORY FROM BOTH SIDES
