On Summer mornings when we were boys, my best friend Kelly and I would sometimes take our older siblings' rackets and walk (barefoot) to a nearby park that had tennis courts. We would play until the cement court got too hot for our feet! It was fun to try and gut it out, but we always ended up with scalded soles.
Too bad today's kids won't have the fond barefoot memories we have, choosing to stay inside with their devices and phony on-line friends instead of being outside with real, fellow barefooted friends! What a shame!
