So, cool, that Cherry comes through one more time with thoughtful thoughts on TGIF. And so cool that my good buddy Steve (sometimes Steve-O) joined in on the comments to Cherry’s post and then Cherry is back to him with more thoughts. We got a global tapa conversation situation going on here people. And I’m happy!
Then, on top of that, the magazine article on this pilgrim is out and here is the link:

So check that out. We are blessed. I am happy some more.
Also, I think that I will include two pics of Anamaria and Alida in Madrid. Alida there recently for a short visit while Anamaria is there in school. Seeing them brightens my day. I’m just good all around!
Let’s see what we can make of this day. Making venison chili in the crock pot for company tonight. See you tomorrow, Buen Camino, happy loves, Felipe.
Hey Buddy-
Nice article. To say the least.
Y’know, I am very proud of you.
That you’ve remained on the trail, remained a caminohead, kept open this forum for an everyday invitation to reflection — it makes a difference. Your blog remindes me : Everything is mysterious in a way, isn’t it?
A few years ago I met a very old woman on Vashon out in an open field. After a brief conversation in which we began to share our histories and places in the world — and in that process of introductions discovered overlapping commonalities of experience and place — she said, “Well now, we’ve woven a basket, haven’t we?”
I sometimes feel like an almost supple-enough reed, travelling mapless — up and down and around and over and under and in and out– a mysterious, compelling and oftentimes uncomfortable journey. But, we’re weaving a basket, aren’t we?
Thanks Pal.
Phil is making me do this. Because I was getting tears at just how real this exchange is, which is beautiful to me. Steve–you are simply the best.
My Rebecca
My Rebecca, “Phil is making me do this.” Yikes. She was moved by the Camino conversation and I just wanted her to reply without me. It is a pleasure to find that we can have these conversations in the here and now without being somewhere in particular. Felipe.
