Thick socks allow the foot to move around inside the shoe, causing rubbing and hence blisters. Thin socks allow the shoe to be more securely bound to the foot, avoiding relative motion and hence avoiding blisters. Thin socks also dry quicker after wading through a creek!<br /><br />-- KirbertAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1838884300056139535.post-19922640849832518682010-05-01T08:16:04.506-07:002010-05-01T08:16:04.506-07:00Sorry about the blisters.... ouch!

I read today's paper before reading your 3 blogs (was offline for a week), and when I saw "people falling out of the sky" I thought somehow you had been where the Russian parachuter fell and died yesterday, due to a collapsed parachute. So sorry for him and his family/friends... so glad the guy who landed near you landed safely!<br /><br />Hansenclan<br /><br />P.S.
