Barefoot Rick's blog

Hi everybody ,
It’s been a great day for bare feet and just being outside. Here where I live it’s a warm day and so I went for a little walk on a trail that is by my fishing hole. And I saw a lot of people biking and jogging and walking . But I was the only one walking barefoot and a lot of people would ask me if my feet hurt and I said no I been going barefoot for over 29 years and I’m barefoot all year around. I even had a few people like my toe rings and anklets. I even talked to a lady that was really interested in the barefoot lifestyle so we talk and walk for a while and it was great we stopped at a bench that is off the trail where you can rest and in joy the view of the river and mountains. The next think I saw was the lady taking off her shoes she was not wearing socks. And I asked her if she was ready for the walk back to where she parked her car? She said yes I told her that her feet will hurt and she might get some blisters on the bottoms of her bare feet. And she said she can handle it so we started back and she now knows how tough my feet are and that she has a little ways to go before her feet are that tough . She ask me what she can do all I told her is to walk around barefoot more and listen to her bare feet but the more she is barefoot the more her feet will get tough . As we weretalking she did say that I had nice toes for a guy and the toe rings look great on my toes I said thanks and I told her she has real pretty toes and she has toe rings on all of her toes. And her toes were painted a dark red . She ask if I have ever painted mine and I said yes . She said that for a guy I keep my bare feet looking great most guy’s feet look bad and that most guy’s need a pedicure. I said yes I get a pedicure twice a year but in the summer I do a lot of stuff outside that it’s hard to keep my bare feet looking good but I do what I can so every day in the morning my feet look good but by the end of the day my feet are dirty and on the days I mow the grass my feet are green . She ask if I mow in bare feet I said yes I do I even string trim in bare feet and I make sure I’m careful the I don’t cut my feet or toes. When we go back she looked at her bare feet and the bottoms were black and I told her mine are black to and I like when my feet are dirty like that . I said goodbye she said goodbye and we will see if she goes barefoot the next time she goes walking she walks the trail every day and I walk or fish that part of the trail and I will let everybody know what happens.

Hi everybody,
Yesterday was a great day for going barefoot. I went fishing that morning and did really good fishing and yes I was barefoot . And after I come home I had to go to Walmart to get a couple of things and as I walked in the greeter said wow I haven’t seen you in a while I said I haven’t seen you she said that she was working at another Walmart and now she is back here . So I went on to do my shopping and she said hey barefoot Rick I like your toe rings and anklets I said thanks and as I was shopping I had a few more people tell me they like my toe rings and my anklets . I even had a guy ask me where I got them and I told him where. I even had a couple aske me the same thing where I got my foot jewelry and they even said that I have good looking toes for a guy all I could say was thanks . So I finished my shopping and checked out I had a guy ask me if I’m always barefoot I said yes 24/7 all year a around he told me that he just started to go barefoot and I looked down and he was barefoot too I was happy to see someone else barefoot. We talked for a few minutes and he was asking me about where else I go barefoot and if I have had any problems at different places . I told him and then he ask me if he could have my number I said ok gave it to him . He wants to go and walk the trail that I walk and talk about how I got started barefooting. So I will let you all know how it goes keep barefooting

Hi everybody,
Today has been a great day to be barefoot the sun was shining and it was a little chilly this morning it was in the 30’s. But it warned up and so I went fishing and yes I was barefoot at least I did not have to walk in the snow today. I didn’t get to many looks like I was crazy for being barefoot and fishing in my bare feet. There was some people running with out shirts and in shorts. I did really good fishing I got 14 trout but I do catch and release so others can have fun catching them. The smallest trout was 15 inches the biggest one was 28 inches the water coming off the fish was cold when it splashed on my bare feet . I had one person tell me that it’s great to see another barefoot person . And it was great to see someone else barefoot beside me out there fishing. And he saw my toe ring and my anklets and he said that it looks great on me I said thanks and I saw he was wearing two toe rings and I told him that I like his toe rings I asked where he got them he told me and when I got home from fishing I got on the wed site it was ESTY and I ordered 6 toe rings I can’t wait to get them . Will everybody keep barefooting

Hi everybody,
It’s been cold and it has rained and snowed . The morning’s the temperature had been in the teens and the temperature in the afternoon has been in the 30’s . I really can’t wait for spring so I can go more places in my bare feet and show off my new anklets and toe rings and it will be great to go places and not have a lot of people give me looks like I’m crazy to be barefoot in the snow or every cold temperature. I got a lot of looks this year and I have heard people say that I’m crazy or on drug’s because I’m walking barefoot in really cold temperature. I did buy three new anklets yesterday and I don’t know if I should wear all three or one every week or every month this is one of the anklets will everybody keep barefooting
