| Creekside Paradise |
Since we got caught in the storm yesterday, my boots were soaked, and my feet fried AKsherpa found us a great Hiker B&B to stay in, the Creekside Paradise. Jeff and Cynthia are great host and have everything you would need to have a relaxing Zero Day.

AKsherpa and I charged our phones, updated our blog, showered, enjoyed being spoiled by the owners. Breakfast was amazing with breads, fruit, lox, coffee/tea, and cereals. Jeff, the owner, also told us about a great weather site for the trail, AT Weather. You can check on our weather. I know we will be and staying ahead and out of the storms.

To help my feet recover I took an Epsom Salted bath which was incredible. It dried out my blisters an helped heal the new skin underneath. They are on the mend. When we were at the NOC I had toe caps overnighted to The Hike Inn to help perserve my toes and fix the problem. I am excited to open my package and get back on the trial.
I am really enjoying our Zero Day and relaxing but I am itching to hit the trail. I know AKsherpa is ready because she went for a short hike today to go pick blueberries near the B&B. I now understand the vortex and time warp that hikers get sucked into with Zero Days. I can see how zeros could be a slippery slope and turn into much longer than just a day :-)
