Just paid GoDaddy $33 and some cents to get Caminoheads.com for another two years! Now I have to last that long and have that much to say. Hmm. Can he do it?! We’ll see I guess. Who would have thought that I would have made it this far and had all these fabulous adventures. Right? So stay tuned.
What else is new? Speaking of fabulous, a gorgeous blue sky up there this AM. The exact kind of sky we dream about all winter here in Seattle. Thank you.
Also, received a nice email back from Joyce Rupp, author of, Walking In A Relaxed Manner, the book that I have been raving about lately. I just took a chance and wrote her letting her know about Phil’s Camino and the happenings in Dubuque. She lives in the great state of Iowa. What can I say but Caminoheads recognize each other. Thank you.
I need some more coffee. OK, there, alperfect. So, yes, the topic of the next two years. It reminds me of our wonderful neighbor Gladys that insisted on buying a new garden rototiller at age ninety three. Never quit, right? Well, there you go, kind of answered my own question there. I guess how many days God gives me, I will try and fill with blogposts on how to keep the Camino Flame burning. Because the Camino never ends, right? Always new friends, new vistas, new ideas, new insights. Really, I couldn’t have guessed at all the wonderful things that have happened in the last two years. And couldn’t have guessed at all the wonderful people that I have met along the way also. Thank you.
Yea, I have heard these words, “In non medical terms, God is keeping you alive so that you can complete your mission.” That’s pretty heady. I’m honored. I will do my best. Thank you.
Off to see Our Jennifer, will say hello for you. Only the best blue skies for you today, love, Felipe.
Buenas Dias, Amigo!
The “two year thing” resonated well this morning. That’s because that is the planned year of PFJ’s return to the Camino. Pretty much exactly two years from now, in fact, as that is the time of year our Numero Uno Grand kid Kitty will be able to take leave from high school as she finishes her junior year and has matriculated into her senior year. She will be accompanying me (or vice versa, probably in her mind relating to a doddering ol’ grampa). So, Marine, I expect your full attention to those happenings as they happen. Anything about those orders you don’t understand? Didn’t think so. Carry on and carry out the plan of the day.
SF,
PFJ
Aye, Aye, SIR!! Bon voyage, SIR!!
Hello Felipe,
Just downloaded walk in a relaxed manner on my kindle. Thanks for turning me on to it. I’ve read a few chapters and it sure brings back a lot of memories! I’m glad you reupped as I look forward to reading your blog everyday. I’m awaiting the return of schnoz. I love that little guy! Haha! Keep on keeping on!
Love,
Erin
Erin ~ I just emailed Schnoz and told him he’s on for the morning. So glad you liked him. Thanks for being such a faithful reader. You guys make the blog! See you tomorrow from the hospital. Love, Felipe.
our grandma Riches opted out of the extended warranty on her new dishwasher much to the chagrin of the shop guy until he found out that she’s 100. Well, she’s still driving to church every Sunday, gardening, and keeping the ever-encroaching sea at bay from her garden, so one never knows. Lots of love, Felipe. And thank you for the prayers for Fr. Michael. I miss him so much and wish we could’ve taken out an extended warranty on him – does God give those out?
Catalina ~ here’s to Grandma Riches! Some people just have such a strong sense of purpose. Felipé.x
