Will today i had to go to Wal-Mart to get filters for the heater in my house. So i went to Wal-Mart and yes i was barefoot. And the looks i was getting from people and some employees. Today the temperature got in the 40's and the ground was warm . I had a jacket pants and a hat but barefoot like always. And i even had a lady ask me if i was ok and if i needed help. I said no I'm always barefoot all year around and the lady said that she loves going barefoot but in the winter she is barefoot in her house never outside. I told her she should try it like with someone else that loves to go barefoot all year around. She was a very good looking lady and she was in flip/flops . As we talked i notice she took off her flip flops and was walking around barefoot with me . I asked her if she had a husband or a boyfriend. And she said no and she ask me i said no no one i told her it's hard to find someone that is ok with a guy that goes barefoot like i do it's my lifestyle. She said that she would like to get to know about my lifestyle i said that would be great. And she said did you noticei took of my flip flops i said yes . And she has nice looking toes and she even said that for a guy i have nice looking toes also. And so as i got what i needed and she got what she needed a lot of people where saying stuff like thoes two are crazy they are barefoot in the winter. But she ask how do i deal with people saying stuff . I told her i really don't care what they say. So as we checked out she ask me i bet your feet are dirty? I said yes but that how it goes and the dirtier the better. So she looked at her bare feet and she said wow they are black and i said yes and that's good. So we exchange phone number and she want to learn more about how going barefoot in good for you . Even she said that she will start going barefoot everywhere with me i said ok i like when i have someone else to go barefoot with. She wishes she could work barefoot but she did say she always drive barefoot and she will go to her office barefoot and after work she will walk out of her office barefoot. People just don't know what to make out when they see two people barefoot in the winter. I think people should try it ones going everywhere barefoot. I don't know why people don't like to see others barefoot. But i will keep you all posted and everybody keep barefooting

Hi everybody it was a great Christmas it rained here in Utah on Christmas day and yes i was outside in the rain barefoot. My family( my mom) and some friends came over to get together for Christmas at my house. And everybody that came knows I'm a barefooter for life. But on Christmas day the temperature was only in the 30's and the rain changed in to snow . I love to walk in the snow barefoot. So as we sat down to eat our Christmas dinner and then open our Christmas presents to each other. It was starting to snow hard and the streets where covered. And eveybody started to get ready to go home i help the family out to there trucks with there presents and i was barefoot and the snow was up to my ankles.It felt so good it was hot in my house and my bare feet where so hot that i had to step out side to cool the off. After they all went home it was getting dark and the Christmas light turned on i went to see if the lights where still hanging it got mighty winded and i was out in the snow barefoot. And as i was checking the light i desided to shovel the snow . The sidewalks and the walk way uo to my front door . And as i was doing that some of the neighborns started doing the same . Then some of the neighbor's saw me out in the snow barefoot. I had some new neighbor's come over and asked me if i was ok because I'm outside .shoveling the snow barefoot and my next store neighbor came over and said that I'm always barefoot i never wear shoes or socks. So as the new neighbor's help clean the snow from the sidewalks. They ask me how i got started bare feet. And so i tolded them and they where like wow. And one couple ask if i get sick in the winter and i said no . they ask do i really go everywhere barefoot i said yes . And the other couple that just got married the two guy's where like that takes a lot of guts . They have tried to go barefoot but they hate going barefoot in public. I said it's a lot easier to go with others that go barefoot .And they ask if i could go with them to the store barefoot when it gets warmer i said yes that would be great. I said that i have to go to Wal-Mart the next day and the two guy's ask if they could go with to see what looks i get and what people say. As we finished removing the snow the two couples notice the my bare feet where red and they ask if i could still feel my bare feet i said yes as one couple said i could warm up my bare feet at there house for a bit. I said ok and i also said is it ok to be barefoot in there house my bare feet are dirty. She said yes it's ok and her husband said yes it's ok. As my bare feet turned back to the normal color . I notice that they both would look at my bare feet. I ask if there is anything worng they said no they said for a guy i have good looking bare feet i said thank you. And they ask if i get a pedicure i said yes every month. And thay ask where do i go i said Wal-Mart for the pedicure. And both ask if i ever had people say bad things about going barefoot? Yes i said and sometimes it's not a problem but there are sometimes it hard not to say words back and then god know what might happen. I ask them do they go barefoot they said yes but in the summer they are always barefoot. I ask do they go to the store's barefoot and to the movies and places like that barefoot. They said no they have gone to the gas station barefoot but other places no i ask why they don't have the guts to do it i said i would go with them if they want me to . So i left to go home and it was a great Christmas i have new neighbor's and new barefoot friends .will everybody keep barefooting.

Today it was mostly cloudy but warm in the upper 40s and great barefoot weather. I went put gas in my truck and yes i got some looks and the people that gave me those looks where wearing flip/flops. Even one ask if the ground was cold and all i could say was it feels cool not cold. I really don't feel the cold on my bare feet. Then i went to Wal-Mart and there a got a lot of looks and i heard some people say that it is warm enough to go barefoot. I even saw one guy and his wife took off there flip/flops and shopped barefoot also. And the guy said to me i must be a little crazy i said no being barefoot is my lifestyle and i ever wear shoes or socks in the winter i love the feel of the snow under and over my bare feet. And they said that I'm the only guy they have seen go to Wal-Mart barefoot all year around. I said thanks and i said next time we can talk more and the guy said about going barefoot in all weather i said yes . And other places like the movies. We said good bye .i hope to see them and other barefooters . At Wal-Mart or where ever i go . I just wish other people would not be so negativity about bare feet. Will everybody keep barefooting.

It's been snowing where i live and of course I'm still going barefoot. I had some people call the police to see if i needed help. But when the police asked me i said no I'm always barefoot and they said that there where some people that called and one of the officers knows me and he said this guy is always barefoot. We talked about how i started going barefoot and they said ok and i finished my walk and went home and that was a ok day for the rest of they day people always look at me like I'm crazy when I'm walking around barefoot in the winter. Will everybody keep barefooting.

Hi everybody today i went to see a friend that is in the hospital. And yes i went barefoot. I had a woman ask if i needed help . I said no I'm here to see a friend. She ask for his last name i gave it to her she told me and gave me the room number. I said thank you and she said you're welcome and she also said that she likes my toe ring. I said thank you and is it ok to be barefoot in the hospital and there rooms barefoot. She said yes it's a little odd to see anyone bare foot this time of the year and it's really cold. I told her I'm barefoot all year around and it feels great. So i went up to see my friend . It was great to see my friend and even my friend said and you're barefoot i said like always. Then the doctor comes in they talk and the doctor tells my friend when he will go home and all this time the doctor is looking at my bare feet. Before he leaves he ask me if I'm ok i said yes i know you see me barefoot and you want to make sure I'm ok not crazy. The doctor said something like that . i told him I'm a full time barefooter I never wear shoes or sock i go barefoot everywhere i camp fish ride and drive barefoot.. He said that's great he is a fellow barefooter to until it gets to cold for him. But he was telling me and my friend that being barefoot is really healthy and that everybody should go barefoot more and they wont have foot problems. Be said when be gets a chance to go barefoot at work he does and that be doesn't wear socks. Because the socks get snag on his anklets. I said i just never like shoes or socks. The doctor said tbat he was sorry for starring at my bare feet he said that at least i keep my bare feet nice even those the bottoms are jet black the way they should be for someone that walks barefoot like i do and he said he likes my toes ring and anklet i said that's. The doctor said if anybody says anything about your bare feet and that you have to wear shoes tell them to call him. And we talk about the places w go barefoot and how people treat barefooters . Then he had to finish his rounds. That's is twice that a doctor is looking at my bare feet and he likes to be barefoot to but not at work . I think if the doctor and his staff want to be barefoot they should just as long as they keep there barefeet nice like get a pedicure once a month . I think if you are going to be barefoot in public you must keep your barefeet looking nice and your nails cut and clean or painred nice i get a pedicure once a month and i always have someone looking at my bare feet l love when people look at my bare feet and say how nice my bare feet look .. Will everybody keep barefooting.
