I’d sure like to watch you walk sometime a cane and walking sticks too, you must be a sight to behold trotting down the boulevard. Still trying to figure out how you hold everything???
I like the walking stick idea because I'd be free to step to the side.
Thank you,
Jake

@jakedduck1 When I use two walking sticks, and have to carry something, I use a small backpack. The movement of the two sticks help me a lot, so each side and step are balanced more evenly. Yesterday I tried to step from our front walk onto the dirt driveway next door. It was only a 4" change in height. Had to concentrate to make sure the movement was smooth and not result in a butt plant in front of our neighbor!
