Barefoot Rick's blog

Hi everybody , today I had to stop at Walmart to pick up a few things. And I went in barefoot like always. And as I grabbed a shopping cart the greater said hi and just looked at my bare feet. So I had to go to the sporting goods and get some butane and a camping pad. And I had some people look at me and my bare feet . I know because they look me in the eye and then look down at my bare feet. Some people smiled and some people were amazed to see a person shopping barefoot. And as I was getting some sodas and I had one of the workers ask me if the floor feels clean I said yes but when I looked at the bottoms and my bare feet they were dirty . She said wow I guess it’s not that clean I said it feels like it is . So I went on shopping then I had to go to the pharmacy to get some alcohol pads. And there was a mom, the daughter and her daughter and all I heard was mom did you see that guy he is barefoot I have never seen anybody this year shopping barefoot in Walmart except him I just smiled and they smiled back and the mom said he heard us and the daughter said I wish I had the guts to go shopping barefoot I was right by them still . All I said to them was that I hate shoes and socks and flip flops and I prefer to be barefoot . She ask if I’m always barefoot I said yes I’m barefoot all year around. She was amazed her mom was too. Will I got what I need and went to self checkout and they were right behind me. So I checked out and walked to my truck and I notice that they were right behind me I smiled they smiled back I said have I nice day they said the same to you then I came home . Here’s a picture of my bare feet at Walmart today

Yesterday when I went to the movies to see the last voyage of the ReDemeter . And as I was the only one in the theater and barefoot. The movie was good and it takes place on a old clipper ship in the eighteen hundreds and you would think to see some of the crew barefoot but no all of them had boots on and even this little boy had shoes on the only one that was barefoot was a young girl that was a stowaway and she was barefoot for about ten minutes of the movie and after that she had boots on . All the movies I have see that take place in the eighteen hundreds most of the crew were barefoot. But it was a really good movie . Will everybody keep barefooting

Hi everybody,
This morning I went to quick quack car wash to wash my truck . And I went through the auto wash I looked for a open stall . So I found two open stalls so I pulled up to one and yes I went barefoot. So as I was drying off my truck I notice another car pulling up to the stall next to me. And as I was drying the right side of my truck. This lady got out of her car and said that’s the only way to dry your truck . I looked at her and smiled she she said it’s the only way to dry a wet car or truck is barefoot. And I notice that she was also barefoot and I thought it’s aw to see someone else at the car wash that is also barefoot beside me. And as I was drying my truck we were talking about going barefoot and she asked me if I drive barefoot I said all the time and she said she drives barefoot to. And that when she is at work she takes off her shoes and works barefoot at her office. Then she asked me if I go barefoot only in the summer or all year around I told her all year around even in the snow and I also told her that I have been going barefoot for over 30 years she was amazed. I asked her if she is barefoot all year around she said yes but she doesn’t last to long in the snow . I said it takes time to get use to it. And she ask me if I was married or seeing someone I said not there’s not a lot of ladies that would be with a guy that goes barefoot more then they do . She laughed and said that she thinks it’s sexy that a guy walks around barefoot . I even told her that I go barefoot in public like stores and fast food places the movies and restaurants. She said that she like to do the same but it would be easier if someone was with her and I said I know the feeling. So I started vacuuming my truck and she was doing the same to her car . And when I was done vacuuming she was all most done and she ask me if she could have my number I said ok I gave it to her and I said I hope to see you again and she said I will be talking to you soon I have your number I said ok . It’s been years since I have had someone asks me for my number . She must have been in her mid 30’s and me I’m 53 years old . But we will see if she calls

Friday I went to go see the Meg 2 the trench it was a great movie.and yes I went barefoot like always the people that work there know me. And so I was sitting in my seat and had my seat reclaimed. This guy comes up and sits one seat down from me and I was just sitting waiting for the movie to start. And I notice that he keep looking at my bare feet. He finally asked me where did I get my toe ring so I told him where and he asked me where are my flip flops I said I don’t wear shoes. He said wow and they let you in here barefoot? I said yes they know me here and that I don’t wear shoes. He said oh then I notice that two other people sat next to him and the two other people were talking and the guy that I was talking to I saw him take his sandals off and he said that the last time he came to the movies there was a guy that took his shoes off his feet smelled so bad that other people were complaining to the people that were working he said they told the guy that he had to put his shoes back on or leave the movie theater the guy left. Will the two other people started taking their shoes off and so as we were watching they previews before the movie the two other people said at least we are not the only ones being comfortable. And the people that were next to them started to say that we needed to put your shoes on and that they don’t allow bare feet. We said please just mind your own business. So the guy ( he was a older man) went and started to complain to the people that work there that we had our shoes off and it’s against the health code and the people who work there said no that people take their shoes off all the time and there’s no health code saying that you have to have shoes on at the theater. So the guy and his wife got really mad and this is happening where we were sitting. So the manager was called in and he said that people often take their shoes off and that the movie theater welcomes people to do that and they welcome also the barefoot people. I never had that happen at any movie theater I have gone to . So we watched the movie and like I said it was awesome and it’s awesome that the staff at the theater was backing us up . I don’t know why some people don’t like barefoot people. Will everybody keep barefooting.
