    It's day two of my barefoot vacation at the lake. Yesterday as we came here, I brought no shoes along. I have two days left on my barefoot vacation.

  2. Walk on fun surfaces. Get your soles dirty and tingling! Go barefoot in places where you always dont!

    Have you persuaded members of your travelling party to follow suit and abandon footwear?

    No. They're a bit prudish.

    Prudish they may be, have any of your travelling party enquired about your lack of footwear while enjoying a weekend away?

    Going somewhere and not bringing any shoes at all is great. Very liberating.

    i disagree with this more and more as time goes on. i just can't comprehend how it's liberating to be unprepared. it's like saying that it's liberating to go to a ski resort without any skis; sure you saved yourself the trouble of having to carry skis, but ultimately you just limited what you're able to do there. i'd rather have everything i might need and not use it than not be able to do something because i was being stubborn.

    i suppose there are a few exceptions; if i was traveling on foot i might opt for an extremely light load for example. but i think that's pretty uncommon.

    So you bring a hat, gloves, jacket, and umbrella everywhere you go at all times? Wouldn't want to be unprepared.

    Your ski analogy is flawed. You're going there for the express purpose of skiing. You'd have to rent skis anyway. When you go just somewhere, you're not going there to wear shoes.

    other than the umbrella, i do have all those things in my vehicle at all times, so generally where i go i have them.

    the fact that i don't have an umbrella doesn't really stop me from doing anything. lack of shoes doesn't prevent many activities, but there are a few that shoes are either needed for or at least very helpful. either way, i don't find anything about my lack of an umbrella to be liberating. that was my real point there, i just don't see the liberation in lacking any sort of tool.

    Well, that's how you feel; but that doesn't mean that those who do feel liberated are not entitled to feel that way. If a particular post doesn't describe you, you could just remain silent. Crazy, I know, right?

    not crazy, just boring. and it would be the end of forums, since nobody wants to post on a forum where each thread is one comment followed by a bunch of people saying "uh huh" and "yup."
