Off To Port Angeles

What I feel like this AM.
What I feel like this AM.

I’m taking a little break from my routine to drive to Port Angeles, WA to pick up a friend.  Port Angeles is on the wild and woolly Olympic Peninsula which lies to the west of Seattle, between there and the vast Pacific.  Central on the peninsula are the Olympic Mountains and they are all within the Olympic National Park.  A lot of trekking to be had out there.

The area is also home to Port Townsend  a place that happens to have a film festival.  It’s in September and hopefully we will be up there to be with Phil’s Camino.  They have a big wooden boat festival every summer that attracts traditional boat folks from all over.  Lot of cool stuff going on here in the area, get up here and bring some tourist dollars if you can.   These outlying towns are hanging on by their teeth in these high tech days just like places in Spain that we saw.

There, now you know as much about it as I do.   And back to the hospital tomorrow for treatment.   Need to pick up some blueberries or strawberries for my nurses.  I helps me get my butt in there if I know that I will have fun with them.  Maybe Steve-O will show up to entertain me.

OK, kind of a haphazard blog post, maybe reflects my brain this AM.  Well, make the most of it today, it’s one of a kind, right?  Thinking of you there, love, Felipe.

  1. Dear Phil,

    My husband and I recently attended a presentation of the “rough cut” of the documentary about your Camino on Vashon Island and your journey on the actual Camino in Spain at a bookstore in Culver City, CA. We were very impressed and inspired by your story. The director, Annie O’Neil, told the group that you have welcomed individuals to come and experience walking on your Camino. Since a woman friend and I went to walk an abbreviated walk (geriatric – I’m 74) on the Camino de Santiago in October last year, I am very interested in the possibility of doing a walk on your Camino. Can you let me know if this invitation would still be available? What steps would I need to follow to make this a reality?

    You have been in our thoughts and prayers.

    God bless,

    1. Hello Rosemary ~ yes, yes of course come to walk. What month are you thinking about? Let’s start there. Great, Phil.

  2. Dear Phil,

    What a wonderful surprise! Thank you for your reply. We are hoping for early August. What is the best way to keep in contact with you? We will continue to pray for you.

    Sincerely,

    Rosemary
