YOUTH

Judy and I paid a visit to Prescott Valley's Sunday Farmers Market yesterday and she pointed out something to me.

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.)

  1. I hope those heels don't break off and send her crashing down!

  2. I'm sure you were wearing a pair of sensible flats.

  3. Oh 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.

  4. I don't know, giving up the ghost re wearing heels was probably one of my better decisions in life. LOL

  5. I never was a good walker in heels and definitely would have fallen off that cooler!

  6. It has always baffled me why women would want to wear those.

  7. ....and a tat on her well-heeled foot! What is this world coming to, eh?

  8. That'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.

  9. A 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.

  10. Ah to be young again. I never wore high heels back in the day, but I do understand that tricky balance.

  11. Better for her Achilles’ tendon than using the heels all day.
