Ooh, cooling feet in the creeks would be wonderful!! I've been having to conserve bandages and have been changing out my socks several times a day to keep them dry, so I've been avoiding wet feet. In town now so I can stock up so I can regularly changed bandaging.
I hit 100 miles today after 7 days on trail and one zero day. I walked 19 yesterday. In Boiling Springs for tonight, maybe even taking one zero here because I'm waiting on a maildrop that hasn't arrived yet. Oh well. Pretty pissed this place I'm staying charges $5 PER BOX for maildrops. I had some new insoles and some new sock liners sent here plus a maildrop from home. $15 to get my mail?!? Grr.
Anyway, having a kick ass time! I feel great other than the expected sore feet. Stealth camped solo last night for the first time. It was pretty cool, though the howling coyote nearby was a bit daunting. :p Meeting some cool folks and spending some quality time on trail alone. Learning an assload out here!
