More Fingers

During the last game of my junior year of football I hurt my ankles pretty bad. I have had problems with them ever since. They just don't seem to fully heal and I will often re-injure them, mostly while playing basketball. But lately I have become more proactive about them and have started to take steps toward making them strong again.

One video in particular was very helpful. Of the many things that were said, one that I took away was to strengthen my feet by walking barefoot more. Additionally, barefoot shoes (as they are often called) can help to strengthen feet. So to make a long story short I got myself a pair of Vibram FiveFinger TrekSports. Saturday I took them on a hike up to the summit of Dragon's Tooth and walked around Blacksburg. I'll let the pictures tell the rest.

First Day of Pre-Preschool

Tuesday was the first day of the kids' pre-preschool. Rachel and 3 other women from the Blacksburg Ward are each teaching one week a month, 2 days a week, 2 hours a day (a modified joy school kind of thing). They are very excited. They get to ride the bus there, have backpacks, and, mostly, just talk about going to school. Rachel has put a lot of work into it making visual aids and organizing the format of teaching.
