Love my Solomon boots! Have held up nicely despite a lot of mileage (not sure the style as I have had them for 8+ years but they are above the ankle)

Thank you!

Everyone’s feet are different so it really depends on you and the type of hikes you’re planning. Do you need a boot or a sneaker (trail runner)?

For me, waterproofing is important. For boots, I’d start with Salomon or Danner. Go to a specialty store where a knowledgeable associate can help you

Love Oboz - good for narrow feet

Arcteryx are the best, by far

It depends on how you plan to use them. Do you plan on mainly staying on trails? Will your feet get wet? Boulders or scree?

Not specifically for trails and only dry use

I like my Salomon

Keen!! Have had for years

Curious about thoughts on on discount points (I think I’ve already read every article on Google). I am refinancing my personal residence (future rental) as well as a rental property. The mortgage brokers discourage me from spending a ton on points (rolled in, not up front). In some cases, it’s a 16 year break even. I get that’s a very long time to break even, but I have no intention of getting rid of the properties and doubt rates will drop much below current. Max breakeven point for you?

It makes me feel like I'm making it about me vs. them, which is not what I want to do at all.

A friend of mine was broken up with right as I was getting in a relationship. She’s very down so when we hang out, I typically don’t bring him up/share details the way I normally would. She’s only met him at 3 group events over 2 months & she’s been very accusatory of him if we show up late for any reason. It feels like she’s projecting all of her negative feelings onto him. I don’t want to walk away from a friendship, but it seems like she just wants me to be single again. Any advice?

Has anyone else had a really hard time online dating with Covid? I’m aware things are getting better but I prefer to do outdoor first dates to be on the safe side. No judgement to anyone that does differently. It’s just what I feel comfortable with. I’ve had a few guys tell me they won’t do outdoor dates for some reason… some have cited weather but others legit say no (in 70 weather) because it’s a hassle & “Covid is a joke.” Please tell me if this is normal.
