Greetings From Annie

Hey there Caminoheads! Annie here, writing for Felipe. Wow, what a beautiful time we have been having the last few days. A few years ago I considered myself the luckiest woman in the world when I met the man who would end up being my husband. Still do! Then I considered myself the luckiest woman in the world because I got to be part of Walking the Camino: Six Ways to Santiago, both as a co producer and as a pilgrim in that film. Still do! Now I consider myself he luckiest woman in the world because I am producing Phil’s Camino, starring you know who. That’s right, starring our very own Big Kahuna, or shall I say Big Caminohead, Phil! I’m sure you are all well aware of this project. If by any chance you don’t know about it, check it out at www.philscamino.com . Not only has it been a great pleasure hanging around with Phil but also working with the incredible crew we have assembled. The Team, we call each other. Jessica, Todd, and Rebecca, aka Rocky, are the team and although Rocky couldn’t be here this time she was with us in spirit. Also Dominick who has joined our crew on two occasions now, both times increasing not just the quality of work but somehow lifting the entire project with his quiet vibe of excellence. He is one of those people who just makes you want to be better because he is so good, do you know what I mean? The whole team is like that actually. I want to be the best producer I can be because of how good they are at what they do.
Phil asks me sometimes how things got so good, and I just nod and agree instead of answering him. Yeah, tell me about it! I, too, am surrounded by excellence, heartfelt dedication, love and commitment. How about you? Where is the excellence? If it is not immediately apparent maybe it is you! Let’s all just take that on for the day, shall we? Being the excellence everywhere we go. It can look very different from one situation to another, so don’t think this is a ‘set it and forget it’ kind of deal. Nope. You have to figure out what excellence is in each situation, then go for it! So here’s to excellence, whatever it may look like! It would be great to hear from you and hear all about your excellence or the excellence of someone you admire. Buen Camino my friends!
