    First Draft pack list. Assembling for training. Suggestions?

    Thanks. I think the old Boy Scout in me is taking over and I'm trying too hard to be safe that far from home. Some of that surely isn't going. I'm a 6'2" 220 pounder. Trying to keep it as far under 20 pounds as possible. The big four, the pack, tent, bag and mat all together come in under 8...

    List your shoes

    Teva sandals. Yes, I know, the question of the intelligence of the intrepid sandal wearer. It's all I've worn for years. Anywhere. I own one old, but mint, pair of Adidas Telstar soccer boots, a pair of steel-toed work boots, and my faithful Tevas. Last time I went camping, here in Nebraska at...

    movie "Radio Buen Camino" - A R R I V A L

    Re: movie "Radio Buen Camino" - part 1 I can't begin to train until next week after another doctor and a physical therapist sign off that it's okay but these are a wonderful way to stay motivated. Beautiful work, Gunnar. Thank you so much for sharing. And David243, if all goes well, I'll be a...

    The Best Song To represent The Camino

    I'm still in the planning stages and haven't been there yet but my theme, and mantra, as I prepare seem to both be the same song: "Going Up The Country", by Canned Heat. Odd that this would come up. I just posted this version in conjunction with my Camino plans today on my Facebook page. This is...

    Where are all the Americans???

    Interesting reading. This is a good a place to introduce myself and why you'll see me on the Camino. I'm an American who is currently planning his camino. I was injured last October at work and due to the weakened state of my hip and lower back, I stil limp and walk slowly. I was already in the...

    :-(

    Monirose, I'm 46, have scoliosis, flat feet, am blind in one eye and am currently recovering from a work injury, torn cartilage in my hip which has left me overweight, out-of-shape and with a possibly permanent limp. I know noone in Spain and haven't hiked a mountain range in the last ten...

    The Movie `The Way`Martin Sheen

    I watched it twice yesterday. Entertaining AND enlightening. Somehow it manages to include a multitude of reasons from the peregrino spectrum, not just the religious pilgrims, and still feel 'honest'. When I go, it'll be for religious reasons first, physical reasons second but even if I wasn't a...

    Osprey Backpack

    I have a venerable Osprey Xenith Pro that I'm basing my packing around. It's a little on the heavy side compared to their new stuff but I've been traveling with it since it was new in 2000 and it still looks like it did when I picked it up at the Mountain Shop in Fort Collins. It's like an old...
