Hello! Thank you so much for this! I am doing well. How about yourself?
An update on a few things I've talked about:
My best friend passed away a few days after I wrote the post above. Though restrictions were in place, I was able to attend when she was buried next to her son (he died in 2017...
I just received an email notification that John Grisham's new book was released today. My heart jumped for joy at the title, "Camino Winds."
Then I saw the topic is actually about a murder during a hurricane in Florida.
Now I am disappointed! 😂
Thank you everyone for the excellent resources!
I checked out several e-books from my local library and found some downloads on Amazon. Time to catch up on my reading!
I also plan to work on languages and crochet a few items.
I had to look up what "RTR" meant, sorry! That would have been fun!
It sounds like you have been on quite the journey! I look forward to seeing pictures.
Buen Camino!
My husband (ExiledSW) and I just wanted to share some big changes in our lives since returning from our Camino in October 2019. This forum showed us tremendous support before and during the journey, and we are grateful to everyone here. (My apologies for the post's length!)

Your trip sounds amazing! I've been home a week today and still so grateful for my post-Camino journey (mostly Ireland and Scotland). Buen Camino...and beyond!
How many cows did it take to completely cover this path?
Is the pilgrim next to me correct that the smell seems to be making us all suddenly walk faster?
I didn't mind the system at all when I received my compostela 11 Sept. I don't have a QR scanner but used https://www.qrstuff.com/scan to keep an eye on the wait. I spent my time cleaning out my bag, having a snack, and chatting with other pilgrims. I think like anything else, new systems take...
Wow! That's a wonderful accomplishment! I finished the Frances last week and can't imagine having kids with me.
By the way, I flew to Ireland Friday after relaxing in Santiago a few days. It's my first time here and I love it!
