How Are your feet doing?

Hi everyone, Uncle Bob here, How are your feet coming? Remember to get out and start walking. By now you should have your shoes broken in. One tip that I've learned that I'll share is that the week before the trek you should hydrate well. (yep that means drink plenty). This will give your body plenty of fluids to start with, then while on the Trail, don't wait until your thirsty to drink. If you wait til your thirsty you've waited too long!

Keep your eyes peeled for buffalo chips and rattle snakes,

Diamonds may be a girls best friend, But gold bond is a guys best buddy.

See you all on the trial, oops should say trail,

Getting ready!

OK folks....Uncle Bob Here. This is the first official post for our trek experience. Hopefully all of us will return safely. On this site you will find a page to leave comments on, a discussion thread for the Ma's, Pa's uncles and aunts. A page that we will broadcast live from the trail....something the pioneers didn't have! One for photo's and another for journal entries from the trekkers themselves.

Watch out for them rattlers and watch out for updates on this blog.... Be a good missionary and pass this blog on to everyone involved!

keep your socks dry!
