Mt Timpanogos





This weekend I hiked up Mt Timpanogos. We left late at night on Friday so that we could get to the top in time to see the sunrise. It was awesome. The hike down in the morning was gorgeous.

Toe Shoes


A few weeks ago I bought these new shoes called Vibram Five Fingers Shoes. Every day that I've worn them since they arrived people that I meet (even complete strangers) make comments or ask questions about them. They're pretty cool. I really like them. They take a little bit of time to get used to, but they're comfortable. I especially like to walk across grass in them. I even took them on a hike and they did pretty well when it came to climbing rocks. I will have to warn you though, these shoes aren't for sissies...unless you never leave the grass. It takes a while for your feet to get tougher...like mine are. Also if you wear something larger than a 14 in mens than you might not be able to get them in your size. I ordered the largest size available. Oh, and they were 80 bucks. To some people that's a lot to pay for shoes that might turn out to be a novelty. I love them and wear them almost every day all day.
