    I'm with ya on the cane use 'like a tight line walker balance'. Thats me on stairs. In airports now, I need a wheel chair assist.

    I find that I take stairs tentatively. One at a time .... even if there
    is a hand rail. Step up/down, bring the other foot along, repeat - until level ground/floor is reaches. Progress is dramatically slower than when
    I wore a younger man's clothes and practically ran on the stairs. My main objective is to arrive intact with no limps or bruises. Bv)=

    Next week I'll be in Pensacola FL all week, Wish me luck! Work travel sucks now.

    My kid brother (R.I.P.) used to was the executive chef at the O-Club of
    NAS Pepsi-Cola. Until he discovered that oil companies were paying north
    of U$1500/hour portal to portal to use his Navy training as an under
    water welder. (Hull Maintenance) Only worked five or six day a manth
    at that racket.

    MMMMM

    ... It's not enough to bash in heads. You've got to bash in minds.

    Same here on the canes! I've considered it and actually have several. Right now for short distances (100 yards tops), none needed.

    On old Navy/Army cookbooks, they can be a hoot! It was the times, they just didn't have the ability to do what we can today and ships had no place near the freezer space of today. People though thought it was great because it was far better than the average American had ever had. Much more variety!

    Hello Carol,

    I'm with ya on the cane use 'like a tight line walker balance'. Thats
    on
    stairs. In airports now, I need a wheel chair assist.

    Get one of those motorized chairs. Vroom! Vroom!
    Quad I know hooked up eight batteries to his and went
    zooming about in a shopping mall. Ran straight into
    a popcorn stand and made a real mess. Security made
    him unhook six of those batteries and warned him
    not to do it again ...

    Next week I'll be in Pensacola FL all week, Wish me luck! Work travel sucks now.

    Another storm in Gulf headed your way ...

    For Life,
    Lee

    Yeah and the other storm made a mess of travel arrangements. I'm forced to use 'DTS' (GOVT Travel program) and only hotels listing were 7.5 hours drive away.

    I found one but it was terrible.
