Barefoot Barbara As I recollect, Barbara and I were around 10 or 11 years old when this lifestyle change occurred. We used to play in the vacant, wooded lot next door to their house. One summer day as Barbara and I were clearing a path to our hideaway, she stepped on a huge nail. I think it must have been about 4 inches long ! Well, I almost passed out from the sight but helped Barbara up to the house. I remember Betty asking, "Barbara Jean why didn't you have your shoes on ?!!!" then " Well, you'll have to have a tetanus shot". (gulp...time for me to exit) We always wore shoes after that.
