Review: How the EcoFlow Delta 2 held up to Hurricane Ian and its aftermath
A lesson in portable power: A review of the EcoFlow DELTA 2
EcoFlow DELTA 2 portable power station on the counter.

Years ago, shortly after my wife and I first moved into our home, we were hit by a storm. It wasn’t a hurricane, and it wasn’t a particularly bad storm, but it was a storm nonetheless, and it knocked out our power for over a week. We lost all of the food in our fridge and freezer. We had to drive to my in-laws to take a shower. There was no AC, and we live in hot and humid Florida, so it was absolutely miserable.

It’s an experience I’d rather not repeat, and yet, every hurricane season the opportunity is certainly there. More recently, Ian passed by us, wreaking havoc on the southern parts of the state. We live near Tampa, but fortunately, we were on the outskirts of the storm’s path. Still, there was ample opportunity to lose power, as we have before, and since our roof was damaged, the winds and rain were clearly dangerous enough to do some destruction.

Don’t let wet socks ruin your hike this spring — these tips will keep you dry
High-performance hiking socks that stand up to Seattle rain

The Seattle area is famous for its rainy weather, particularly during the spring. Personally, I love the spring here, and I don't mind the gloomy weather. It's therapeutic to hit the trail on a rainy day, when the droplets patter from leaf to leaf. That said, when there is rain, there are also puddles. I've had to deal with my fair share of wet hiking socks.

Unfortunately, wet socks often come with blisters and even trench foot if your feet are constantly in a soggy condition over a several-day hike. Cleveland Clinic says that trench foot can happen in cold and damp conditions, causing symptoms such as numbness, pain, redness, and swelling, which restricts blood flow to your foot. Here's how to prevent it and avoid wet hiking socks.
