Ouch!! While you don't say, I would assume this incident was when you were barefoot.

What I did not mention was that, when we first went out on our hikes in our new home, we were initially surprised to find out how many of the barbed "remnants" we had just been walking on followed us inside our house. On the soles of our shoes ...

Whether along the seashore or in the desert, it sure makes us appreciate whoever invented shoes! Hahaha ... 🫡😉
