You know that people come to walk Phil’s Camino the trail. And summertime increases the activity. I have been calling these folks my doctors, lawyers and Indian chiefs. Just as the Camino in Spain attracts such an interesting set of people so the Camino here does. And what we do here I have likened to a salon in the French sense. I see the mix of all these folks to be a rich brew and I get inspired and new ideas flow. I get something important out of all this and pilgrims leave with little treasures I know.
Cris has been calling this a neighborhood. I am liking that a lot, the Caminoheads Neighborhood. I think actually she was referring to this blog but it works for the walk also. Maybe the walk is part of the blog or vica versa. Anyway sort of a Mr Rogers thing going on here now apparently. Where’s my cardigan?
The sun is out and the sky is blue and we have a walk at 4 PM. And tapas afterward of course. My Rebecca might be home by then from her convention in Boulder. That would be perfect. But it is always alperfect anyway.
Well, I am going to mosey on, dishes to wash and weeds to pull. Always good to see you here at the Neighborhood! Be at peace. Loves, Felipe.
Querido Felipe,
Yes, where is your cardigan???!!! I read something about Mr Rogers (actually about the movie), and i thought: wait! Phil and “us” are doing the same in Caminoheads!!! So yes, this is a neighborhood, we cross our paths walking, we get to chat (via the comments or mails or Skype calls), and then we get the salon, it is like the kitchens in the neighborhood houses where we meet for a coffee or a drink and we have our debates… or maybe like the nights in the albergues, in the comunal meals or the noisy restaurants that had pilgrims menues… there the talks just happened and we had revelations!
How good it will be if we could all get back to the neighborhood idea? Wouldn’t it? And by the way, I didn’t watch Mr Rogers ever… it was not aired here, but I listened to Yo Yo Ma saying that the thing he was most proud of was having appeared in Mr Rogers and then, I looked up who he was… truly I would have been very proud to be one of his kids!
Neighbor love and pilgrims love,
Cris
Cris ~ Yes, it is true that everything that we have developed over the last four plus years has turned into a neighborhood of sorts. Here it is the Camino neighborhood, a kind of home away from home. This all warms my heart. Thank you for reporting on ourselves. I knew we were doing something important (Felipe humor). Mr Roger’s show, way back when, was before my time. So, we will continue doing what we are doing, right? Felipe.x
We certainly will!!
Love to be your neighbor!!
❤️
Cris
Cris ~ all darn alperfect! Felipe.x
