Somebody got booted.

I had a friend who had to pick up and carry slippers or shoes with her or put them in a closet right away as they’d be torn to shreds.
LikeLike
She hasn’t shredded anything. Yet. But she does immediately pick up shoes and move them, one by one, to somewhere else. She doesn’t move both shoes to the somewhere else. Just one, and then the other one gets moved to somewhere else place #2. She apparently doesn’t want them to be together anywhere.

Well that is unusual, but funny that she does that. Unless you secure your shoes somewhere, you have to start out five minutes earlier to ensure you find them before heading out. 🙂

Thank you – you have to wonder why they were left there? It was in an open area, not a deserted area.

Oh boy…so many stories an abandoned pair of shoes can tell. What happened to its owner?

Isn’t that strange Esther? The oddest thing is that this was out in the open and they were not damaged in the least. There is no swimming at Humbug Marsh, so it’s not like someone kicked off their shoes and went into the water to go swimming. And the way they were laying, quite far apart. I’d like to know too!

It is a mystery!! Maybe someone dropped it from a bag as they were walking?
LikeLiked by 1 person
Well that’s possible Esther, but these are heavy duty construction boots, probably steel toe. You would feel if they dropped out of a bag and probably hear them hit the ground.

When an extraterrestrial leaves the earth after being here as a spy, he leaves the shoes behind, because (with weightlessness) one doesn’t need shoes. 👽

Well that’s a good theory Tom – they were perfectly good shoes and this was in a high-traffic area and there is no swimming area around, so all those factors sure had me stumped!

Thank you Shelley – I’ve got some chalk art crime scene outlines which I’ll do for a Wordless Wednesday sometimes (if I haven’t lost them). I’ve been bopping around a bit for my posts and I really have to re-organize them, so it’s a good thing I have a grid of walks. These shoes were in great shape, so I’m not sure why they were left behind. (???)

I really don’t understand it either Terri. It’s not near a beach as there is no swimming at Humbug Marsh and it’s a wide open common area, so no foul play, at this location anyway. They were not raggedy shoes either.

You are more adventurous than I am Barbara, but then again, I was on a bicycle, a two-wheeler, in 1976 and I was hit by a drunk driver pulling out of a bar parking lot. She said she stopped and helped me up to my feet and I was okay, so she left. She never stopped, I was okay, but the bike was mangled and I rolled it to the police station a few blocks away. I memorized most of her license plate and had a good description of her. A woman sitting on her porch saw her car hit me, but went into the house afterward. They caught the woman, I spent the day in court and she got a ticket for a rolling stop and that was all!

I agree with you Diane – my walking shoes get way more than 1,000 miles on each pair. I wonder about leaving those shoes – in fact, I wonder why they weren’t closer to one another – this does look like a crime scene of some type. I loved Murder She Wrote back in the day!
