Hardly!
This morning I touched my boyfriend's frost bitten finer. Ew! It is really strange. When you touch the tip it doesn't feel like how a finger tip would. The skin is hard. And it doesn't even prune how you would expect it would during a bath. It's just gross, especially because I didn't include the detail of his nail. Another nail is growing underneath the current nail. Gross! Even writing this I can't even look at the text. I guess you can tell I was made to be a doctor or nurse. Ugh, no, never. My insides are inside for a reason!
Where did he get frost bitten you might be asking...he went with some very experienced hikers/backcountry campers and went to Dolly Sods in West Virginia. He had a great time, but the poor thing was not built for cold weather like this. I used to secretly giggle to myself seeing people totally out of their element. For example, when I went to school in Syracuse there were a bunch of first time in America-ers and they would be from the Caribbean or other places that have very warm climates. So now picture my boyfriend who grew up in southern India camping for three days in the mountains/backcountry of West Virginia! He didn't even have a hat, but thankfully one of his fellow campers had head gear for him. And I bet if you would have asked him 5 years ago if he could imagine himself here getting frost bitten from a camping trip he would probably think you were crazy. But that's what happened. I will look for a link to some pics that the people took on the trip. Beautiful countryside/landscapes!!
