Anthony said I needed to practice hiking in the rain, so I started a 3-day hike in the rain with my rain gear on. But of course, I forgot my backpack rain cover. There was no one else crazy enough to be in the park in the rain other than the ranger but she was getting paid. Fortunately, it was a light rain and stopped after about two hours. It had rained heavy the night before and several trees were downed & some fell across the trail.
and stopping about every 5 miles and airing out my feet, I only had one small blister on a big toe that I caught early and taped further. Although, toward the end of day two's 20 miles, I was ready to call Anthony & tell him my almost 60-year old feet can't do this trip but with a few adjustments, I felt much better at the end of day 3.
