We are off and running in our “pilgrimage across Spain”. We have crossed the Pyrenees and been in the places: Orisson, Roncesvalles, Burguete, Biskarreta and have arrived in Zubiri. And by my count in the logbook 13 different folks have walked with me and shared stories and insights. It’s late summer and the corn stalks are still standing, the sunflowers are still beautiful and feeding the birds. The grass in the pastures and around the trail has greened up considerably after the drought. The blackberries are gone but the apples and pears are on.

Right now I am mowing to keep the grass growth down and planning on getting the six bird feeders up and running. These six feeders mark the six “Our Father’s” in the saying of the rosary if you are working on that. They need some minor changes to make them more squirrel proof, a constant battle.

If you are coming to walk for now just have a hat and rain jacket to protect yourself from an occasional shower. No need for heavy boots yet as there is no standing water. Here is our schedule: Monday 9-10, Tuesday 4-5, Thursday 9-10 and Sunday 4-5. Do it. Felipe.
