I put in another 9 miles of hiking on my boots today. Over the past two days I have developed one of the worst blisters of my life. If I didn't find feet so disgusting, I would actually take a picture of it to put on here. But it is on the pad of my right foot, and it is about the size of a quarter. It hurts like a B**** to put any weight on it, so it makes walking difficult. I think I'm going to invest in some insoles, since I like everything else about the boot. That and I haven't developed blisters on my heels, where I thought they would appear for sure! But I'm up to walking with about 20 pounds. I crammed a bunch of stuff into my actual backpack for the walk today. It felt pretty darn good.
Right now I am trying to stay awake as long as possible. I actually volunteered to work a night shift tomorrow, so the longer I can sleep in tomorrow, the safer it will be for my patients. But, I'm not too sure how much longer I can stay awake......

if you're into hiking be sure to try the pictured rocks trails in the UP, near Munising/Grand marais this summer. definitely the best hiking in the midwest and only 3 hours away.
I hiked there a couple of summers ago. That is where I picked up the two old gynecologists from Ohio and gave them a ride to their car. It is beautiful up there!
