High Tops

I was asked today what the high top tennies have to do with anything...

Well...

I originally wanted the book to be titled: 

The Journey of a Thousand Miles...

... taken from the quote "The journey of a thousand miles begins with but a single step."  And usually that quote is always attached to a pair of high top tennis shoes.  Converse, to be exact.  But my daughter hated that title.  Not just hated...  she

HATED IT!

Still, I had that stuck in my head.  And there's another reason that those tennis shoes are so important to me, too.  But that part will just have to remain a mystery.  Until you read the book. 

So, the title got changed.  But I still snuck in the ol' tennis shoes.  Even if Liz hated those, too.

Tomorrow I'll post an excerpt from the book.  Because I want to.  No other reason.

No tennis shoes mentioned though.  I'll tell you about a purse instead.  Or a bbq.  Or... a hamburger.  Haven't decided yet.

Maybe I strapped on my tennies, grabbed my purse and bbq'd a hamburger.

Ya' never know.
