Things are headed toward the sucking vortex of Heartland Film Festival. The new version of Phil’s Camino officially entitled Phil’s Camino – So Far So Good will be premiering this coming Saturday there. But really the big day for us is the following weekend when a major Caminohead Cluster is happening that Saturday to celebrate the last showing. So, if you are planning on coming up try and be there on the 20th.
But first I am going to escape to Eastern Washington for four days to enjoy the outback. It seems it is turning into an annual ritual for me, Wiley (our trusty son) and James (The Most Interesting Man in the World – In Training). It is theoretically a bird hunt but almost anything could distract us.
So I will be writing this blog from there and will publish those posts when I return to civilization unless I can somehow transmit them from that Middle of Nowhere. So, I am pretty sure that Caminoheads will be off the air for at least four days. But have no fear we will be back with a vengeance.
Then we will be reporting from Indiana and giving you Felipe’s impressions of the Heartland Film Festival and environs. So, off I go now to start the packing process. Don’t want to forget my bow tie. That’s a joke. Love you my friends, So Far So Good Felipe.
Querido Felipe,
SOOOOOO GOOOD!!!!
Wow, yes, this is your anual ritual… I even ate those birds last year!!! A true new delicatessen for this city woman! Send my greetings to Willey and also to “The most interesting man in the world-in training” (and to Henna and Rebecca too). You all made me feel very welcome! And I appreciate your patience trying to explain to me the basics of baseball!
It is a pity I cannot be on the show on the 20th… but I am looking forward to seeing the extended version soon!
Enjoy your time in the mountains, and watch out for cougars!
Hopefully you are taking the tent this time!
Wild loves,
Cris
Cris ~ am navigating through my treatment day here on Wednesday. We have some truck problems to figure out before we can get too far afield. But one thing at a time. And the film showing is building in excitement. Friends are coming from all over the place to be there with us. Wish you could make it but the future will have more fun! Felipe.x
Have fun on the hunting trip, some open country and good company…
Michelle ~ I really enjoy the Middle of Nowhere. Wiley and I have been going in there since he was four. In farm news my clover cover crop is going great guns. I’m treating it more seriously this year not just an afterthought. Come by more often, Felipe.x
Enjoy every moment and I’m sure you and The Guys will. I’m envisioning a labyrinth/camino in my French garden next year although it’s not so big as the one at Chartres. A neighbor has a lot of leftover stones from some project or other…just need someone who understand paths and ways and walking meditation. Hmmmm.
Alperfect!

Mary ~ I am so jealous of your French villa, your French vanilla, your casa de campo. I have been studying up on labyrinths yes, for the day when someone may want me to work on one, you never know. Send me some pics of the house and grounds when you get a chance. Felipe.x
Todo el éxito en esta etapa del camino, Phil!!! También salgo de viaje, te contaré al regreso. Un abrazo enorme!!!
Nancy ~ I had to get help here at the hospital to translate your message. If I wasn’t so lazy I would learn to read Spanish. Hopefully you can read my words without too much trouble. OK, big hugs, Felipe.
Woohoo! Happy hunting! Don’t forget the tent! xoxo
Dana ~ never forget the same thing twice, that’s my motto. Still have a quirky truck problem that needs working out. Always something, right? Felipe.x
Hola,
Just returned home from seeing the extended version “Phil’s Camino: So Far So Good” at Indiana’s Heartland Film Festival.
This one is even better than the :28 version! Annie and crew did a wonderful job telling your story and I continue telling everyone I know to see the film!
Sorry I won’t get to meet you next weekend, but I hope you enjoy your visit.
Warm regards and hugs to you and Rebecca,
Sara Gradwohl
Sara ~ so so glad that you like the film. I am still getting used to it after being with Shortie so long. It is all very special this whole journey. Maybe meet you down the trail somewhere. Thanks, Felipe.x
