Waiting out the thunderstorm at an awesome 3-story shelter.
Hiking in the rain!
Hello! I tried to post on Day 4 but it rained... a lot! We hiked about 12 miles in the pouring rain. My foot and knee pain was still happening. My feet were squishing around in my boot. By the time we got to a shelter it was full so we pitched our tents in the back. Everything in my pack was wet so I had to sleep in wet clothes in a wet sleeping bag. We did our usual night routine of cooking up dinner, hanging our food high in a tree so bears won't get it, and getting all the ticks off of Koda before zipping them up in the tent with me! Despite the ticks crawling around, I slept really well that night because I was so tired!

Hope you dry out soon! We read every night. Hello from Elliott! Sharon
I think Benny is taking on ticks just in sympathy of you guys! We're walking the old railroad trail and he's got a tick almost every day. Sounds like you're doing a good job of the weather, ticks and feet. Enjoy!
