This is Seattle with hydroplane races going on today at this moment. This is a signature Seattle sport. These machines are half boat half airplane and they skim on the water surface just in case you have never seen them.

So, what’s happening with Felipe and Phil’s Camino? Well, we are miles away from that noise and commotion. A hummingbird outside the window is our level of excitement here at the moment. We have a walk in a few hours. This is my low energy chemo weekend so just kind of doing the minimum.

Just had a email from Bill and Sue from Santiago de Compostella Church in California. They were part of the contingent that came up for the premier of Phil’s Camino in Santa Monica. That was where I met them and it was a special time for all of us. They have a Camino that they walk on St James Day and maybe next year God willing I will be able to join them.

My pic is up at St John Vianney Church here on Vashon for going through the Door of Mercy last weekend at Mission San Diego Alcala. Thank you again Sherie for the wonderful trip there to participate in their Mass and to tour the beautiful grounds. Apparently there are twenty six such missions in California. And a tour can be made of them. Some are ruins and some are fully functioning.

Well, I think that I will be off. Oh, look a little blue sky. Love, Felipe.x
