I bought one years ago, when I first started walking seriously, and it was absolutely invaluable for balance, especially on slippery surfaces and uneven ground. Great help when climbing steep hills too.

We have a lot of them in northern cities. If the occupants have a car it must be parked in the street. America is so much more spacious in that respect.

So, do those homes have parking off the street or do tenants and visitors have to park in the street at the curb? That bird on Brooklyn looks like he is sitting on a stalk of asparagus, I think.

It is no fun trying to walk or do much of anything when your knee is hurting. I totally know what you are going thru with it.
