As we oldsters doddered around she had spotted a young woman displaying a much younger sensibility.
And sense of balance.
Wearing quite high-heeled shoes she was balanced atop a cooler chatting with the cook in a food cart.
We watched as she jiggled her feet in that seemingly precarious position, perhaps in time to some inner music.
Ah, to be young again.
(BTW, I got the young woman's permission to take the photo.)
I hope those heels don't break off and send her crashing down!

ReplyDeleteI'm sure you were wearing a pair of sensible flats.
Sandals, Jager.
ReplyDeleteOh man, I probably could have done that when I was younger, but I'm pretty sure if I tried it now I'd break my ankle (or neck). I say I could have done it, but really I'm such a klutz - it would have been a BAD IDEA even back then.
ReplyDeleteI don't know, giving up the ghost re wearing heels was probably one of my better decisions in life. LOL
ReplyDeleteI never was a good walker in heels and definitely would have fallen off that cooler!
ReplyDeleteIt has always baffled me why women would want to wear those.
ReplyDelete....and a tat on her well-heeled foot! What is this world coming to, eh?
ReplyDeleteThat's AMAZING! It's like she used some anti-gravity foot powder. Just standing in the heels, on level paved ground, is more than I could manage.
ReplyDeleteA lot of women who are apparently business travelers are now wearing high heels. Years ago they may have carried heels in a bag or simply went with the flat or even casual tennis shoe they wore to traverse air terminals.
ReplyDeleteAh to be young again. I never wore high heels back in the day, but I do understand that tricky balance.
ReplyDeleteBetter for her Achilles’ tendon than using the heels all day.
