I just noticed your signature line.
Where exactly in the Black Hills are you?
My dad grew up in Rapid City, and we spent nearly all our summer vacations
up there when I was growing up.  I miss our summers there.

Poor Liz.  My husband goes rounds with athlete's foot.  I think the trick is
keeping the feet dry and fungus free.  He never goes barefoot, never never
wears sandels, wouldn't be caught dead without his boots! It was a
challange.

 I had him soak his feet everynight (and during the day if possible) in a
warm pan of water with a few drops each, tea tree essential oil, bergmot
essential oil and lavindin essential oil.  Just a few drops of each oil.
EOs are very concentrated.
I also bought him some some kind of medicated powder.  Gold Bond perhaps.
 Bought some expensive liner socks and a nice pair of heavier socks ..all to
wick away to sweat.

He is a saddlemaker and works 10+ hours a day on a concrete floor.  His
boots started killing his feet many years ago, so he started buying "ropers"
(with the small heel) and now, those Justin boot-shoe things... kind of like
what Ariat makes.

Growing up in a ranch community, I know what footwear served us best... I'm
just starting to go the market-farmer -gardener route.  I wonder what kind
of boots (or shoes) you all find best serves this need?
