I just walked around in my front yard for a few minutes without shoes on. It felt pretty good. I rarely used to go outside.

There's no real scenery here, so it isn't a huge loss. I usually watch where I walk anyway, as I don't want to step in something, even with shoes on.
It's always tempting to look at people who you KNOW are staring at you like 'ah, whut.' though

And yeah I know that feeling too. I love catching people out when they're staring and they look away quickly. It's funny!

Hah - I had some nice barefoot walks by the river this weekend. Topped by cooking some fish on a fire by the river. So a couple of people looked funny, but after some minutes, we also met another guy who went without shoes. Seems this trend spreads :lol:
But I definitley like loam and mud better than gravel - especially the industrial gravel put in potholes or used for construction of paths. Guess I'm just not used to it

I was running around today without shoes on trying to be sneaky like Ney, surprising meh sisters with a squirt gun. I felt like a boss, feeling the damp grass under my feet.
It was fun, then I slipped and bashed my knee. But I had to continue or I risked being sprayed by the hose. My knee didn't hurt too much because I was having too much fun feeling the grass.

We have a nice backyard, so I go out barefoot, walking around outside, sometimes up to 2 1/2 hours a day.
I NEVER wear shoes inside my house. I occasionally walk out the front, or run down the street like an idiot barefoot. If I go to other areas or the shops though, I wear shoes.

I haven't worn shoes this whole week and this brings a Jake quote in my mind:
"My legs are getting tougher" as in, it no more hurts at all. I can run full speed even on asphalt (Though i still prefer soft grass ). This is awesome!

So the barefoot season is getting a bit tough nowadays. It is getting quite cold. I still persisted and did not use shoes on a wilderness festival I went to (it was muddy anyways and who wants wet feet inside wet shoes if you can skip the shoes
). That was fun. There was about 10 peopl of 250 who did this. But now it really takes some guts to keep it up at temperatures well below 20°C.  I think the day will come I cant do it and then I call the winter to be here.Anyways - is there a way to deal with gravel. We have a lot of gravel roads here, usually pebbles up to some inches made for agricultural machines to drive over. I trained my feet now all summer long, but still cannot handle these roads properly. Usually a pebble will be at some place below my feet, worst case in the middle - and I will stumble. Also, I cannot really walk fast there. Another thing is dead plants. When walking over a field that had large grasses on it, there are these stumps of dried grass that stick out. If I get them below my soles, no problem, but if they get between my toes - ouch! Any experiences here? Just avoid pebble roads and areas with thick grasses, I guess, huh?
