    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Off To Ganado, Az. . .

    What a beautiful rug and what a treasure not only to have it, but to have the gift of that connection to the lovely soul who made it. What you have done for the Navajo people will come back to you tenfold, I believe. Bless you and your willing heart. This tired old world needs more just like you.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Off To Ganado, Az. . .

    Threepeaks, thank YOU! What wonderful news. I am confident you'll enjoy being a part of this very worthwhile organization.

    OBSOLETE COVID THREAD Off To Ganado, Az. . .

    Thank you so very, very much for your compassionate heart towards our beautiful Navajo brothers and sisters. Having spent a good deal of time out in that part of the country and established relationships with those who call it home, I have seen the living conditions firsthand and understand...

    News Story Update: U.S. D.O.T. Warnings to Airlines Regarding the Issuing of Refunds for Cancellations

    Just an update to say that I received an email this morning from AA advising that a refund had been issued to my credit card for my canceled domestic tickets. I had canceled the flight after the airline changed the schedule, and had received a voucher which I didn't really want. It took just...

    Camino Snobs

    Thanks again for the very helpful advice. We continue to read and learn and think and dream … all we CAN do at this time, of course, but somehow it's enough. For now. When we begin to talk pragmatically, it gets us nowhere. There are still entirely too many unknowns about what the future...

    Camino Snobs

    True. So true. I am inherently impatient with a "need to know right now" mentality (well, you know this about me already, I'm sure, based upon our other shared interests), and it is dawning heavily on me that this is a time (for all of us, perhaps) to slow waaaaaaay down and get comfortable in...

    Lovely -- I've just ordered the paperback version of the book. Many thanks for the recommendation!

    Camino Snobs

    Yes - thank you, David! I believe someone had mentioned this in another thread in which I expressed our accommodation concerns, and it is a good point for us to remember that there are some albergues with private rooms. I had begun to feel a bit sheepish thinking that we were going to be...

    Camino Snobs

    With slight apologies for resurrecting an older thread, I wanted to thank you for this comment. We are still in the "should we or shouldn't we?" phase of considering the Camino, and I was beginning to wonder if perhaps not staying in the albergues would somehow diminish our overall experience...

    News Story Update: U.S. D.O.T. Warnings to Airlines Regarding the Issuing of Refunds for Cancellations

    My tickets were booked directly with the carrier. I am happy to have at least been given the link enabling me to pursue the refund, whether or not it actually materializes. Thanks again for the info.

    News Story Update: U.S. D.O.T. Warnings to Airlines Regarding the Issuing of Refunds for Cancellations

    Thank you so very much for posting this! I did not know that a refund was even a possibility, but I have just submitted a request for domestic flights that I had actually canceled after AA significantly altered my arrival time. I didn't really want the voucher, but thought that was my only...

    Why Pilgrimage?

    Hey, Mark -- These are not thru-hikes, but simply trips where we'll be gone for extended periods and basically doing a lot of day hikes with an established base. Plans are to be in southern Colorado, seeing as much of the Wemenuche Wilderness area as possible, and spend time in Big Bend...

    Camino De Santiago - Pilgrim's Podcast

    I've just begun listening to this podcast on my commute to and from work and it's brilliant! Definitely provides much excellent information and encouragement, especially to someone such as myself who is in the beginning stages of considering the Camino for the very first time. Thank you for...

    Being "called" by The Way?

    Thank you. Yes, we would definitely be very open to getting to know others along the journey. Even in our backcountry travels here in the US, we tend to make friends easily and enjoy the camaraderie of the like-minded folks we encounter who obviously thrive on outdoor experiences as we do. And...

    Being "called" by The Way?

    Anthony, your video made me weep. In a good way. Thank you. ❤

    Being "called" by The Way?

    Shells, just reading this brought about a stirring in me. The transcendence of it all … maybe that is what I am gravitating towards. Maybe that's truly "a thing" that can call to a person. You can't tell me how you were changed by those six days, and yet I totally believe you when you...

    Why Pilgrimage?

    I so appreciate what you've written. I'm brand new here myself, and grappling with the mere understanding of why this thing I've never done and that previously held no appeal for me now seems to be calling out to me in so many unexpected ways. I fully relate to the emotions that are suddenly...

    Being "called" by The Way?

    Oh, and I'll just add that Tom Petty was right. "The waiting IS the hardest part." Well, that, and simply not knowing where things will lead and when. But what fun it's going to be to find out!

    Being "called" by The Way?

    Thank you all so very, very much. Honestly, I'm not sure where my emotional response to "the call" is coming from. I'm not ordinarily an overly sappy sort, but these days there is something a bit raw bubbling up from within that seems to want to build a slight lump in my throat and make my...
