A misty and rainy day in Duluth. Better now than on the trail!
After getting picked up yesterday by Jen and Mom we went to our hotel, a restored early 1900s mansion. At the door, they requested that guests remove their shoes. My socks were dripping with muddy water, so I opted to remove those too...
This morning, clean and rested in real beds, we went to breakfast then Jen arranged for pedicures as mid-hike foot care. Dad had never done this before and was pretty hesitant at first but quickly warmed up to the idea, when he realized it was pretty much the opposite of the cold soaking our feet had received for the last two days!
The rest of the day was laundry, eating, and getting groceries for the next leg of our journey. Duluth luxury weekend is off to a great start!
