The Mysterious Shoe



I found its mate later on the other side of the road. And then I saw a lone bracelet.

What to make of it? Hopefully nothing bad. My prints are all over the shoe in the photo.

I always wonder about the roadside shoes. I've never seen one this fancy, but yesterday I saw a swim fin. The shoes you found seem like something to write a short story about. I think you should.

That's kind of creepy like in a Blue Velvet kind of way. At least it wasn't an ear though.

shauna: I don't know if I have any short stories in me but I may give it a try.

jilly: You're the second person to tell me they thought of David Lynch when seeing this. I totally agree.

Thanks for stopping by.

Too weird. They look so fancy to be discarded.

I see a short story too... Stephen King comes to mind :)

i posted a couple years ago about the mysteries of lost footwear- 98% of the time, the shoes are solo. in fact, i don't know that i've ever run across an abandoned pair. you're lucky to have had such a rare sighting. perhaps the owner simply had enough of her footwear and was running around elsewhere in the (as it appears to be) park, barefoot.
