[BlindTlk] [BlTlk] Using your cane

[Judy Jones]

Yes, I also use the sweep metthod instead of the tapping method, as you catch much more of the ground in front of you. The tapping method seems like it could be more dangerous, hypothetically, as you're missing the ground in front of you during the sweeps when your cane is in the air.

Subject: [BlindTlk] Using your cane

Since we talked about canes yesterday, I wanted to ask:
1.	Do you use a folded cane?
2.	Yes. I do.
Do you tap your   cane your  from side-to-side?
3.	No I don't. I just drag my cane. So there's the possibility I'll
injure myself.  I'm one of those blind person's who doesn't walk in a
straight line  and I may get off track.
4.	What about you
5.	P.s. Sorry for the errors. I'm not a pro at using technology and
jaws. So the numbers are still appearing in the message.
