[pct-l] socks

[5418610024 at vzw.blackberry.net]

I ditto toe socks. I wear them alone and this summer wore crew socks and dirty girl gaiters. It was the first year I did not get heat rash on my legs and ankles. I only had two blisters and it was in the same place on both feet. Outside big toe. Took care of both and they  healed quickly.  Hint:  do not buy bamboo socks unless you want socks that take forever to dry. I carried three pair so that I could change them out at lunch and then had a dry pair for in the morning.

Ditto on the neo air. Most comfortable sleep I've ever had in a tent. 

Cook your spaghetti (break it up into pieces) at home and dehydrate at home. Package everything at home separately. Then on the trail you can decide which pasta you want, how much sauce and which meat. I start rehydrating everything at lunch and by dinner all I have to do is heat water, dump in dinner, and eat. Saves on fuel.

1. I read recently about preferred socks.  I think there was one that was alpaca
and wool.  Could anyone out there give me an idea of good quality socks and
where to get them?
2. My husband has decided to go backpacking with me.  Yeah!  Which sort of
inflatable pad would someone recommend.
3. Has anyone tried dehydrating spaghetti?  How did that turn out?

Thanks, Sherry
