Look Ma, no hands!

My stilts got here today. :D And I could just now squeeze in a few minutes before dusk and the onset of a thundershower - wet asphalt is a no-go for these things. So, I recruited a friend to hold my hand during the first steps (I bribed her with the prospect of having a her own turn) and it's honestly easier than it looks. The second round I walked on my own with almost no hand-holding and it felt pretty okay. As long as there was someone still around so I knew I could grab a hand if need be. Like, psychological backup. And to help me past the two steps in front of our door. Steps are still scary.

I hope the weather is nice tomorrow so I can try again!
