Thanks everybody for the foot care advice. You all gave me basically the same pointers. As a manly man of the manly woods, the idea of moisturizing my feet had simply never occured to me. While I still have some pain, it is walkable and I have high hopes of a swift recovery. (I regret the nearly half pound of Nivea Soft moisturizing cream I am now carrying but sacrifices must be made for good foot health!)
Onward to Dalton and a free hostel. Some notes:
Fig newtons are a hundred and sixty calories per TWO cookies. Awesome.
I am almost lighter now with my pack on than I was WITHOUT my pack when I started.
Saw the sunrise this morning from Mt. Greylock, highest point in Mass.
Had a pretty dark time yesterday between the feet and some family stuff going on, but a beautiful day today and a burger and fries put me right.
Happy Trails-
