I am about the same age as Hillary and I use any help I can get to go up or down steps. Today I went out in the garage and rolled my foot on a mat. OUCH. My feet are still recovering from all the mountain and church steeple climbing I did in Europe last month.

OUCH is right. I understand. Try living in GA with Sweet Gum Trees that drop those depth charges all over lawns, driveways and sidewalks. I think we had them in CA also but not as prolific as they are here. I could easily break an ankle just walking to the mailbox so I DO watch it...and they don’t even come from our property. They come from the neighbor’s trees. I hate them. They should be banned from the country! HA! Here’s a picture for those who don’t know what they are.
You be careful and just remember your great time in Europe...
