    Pilgrims Office of SJPP

    Such an exciting moment entering the Pilgrims office May 28th 2016. It made everything feel so real. I purchased my shell and a lovely volunteer secured it to my pack as I wore it. Praying to do the same May 25 2020 ❤️👣

    Still Longing to Return

    Has anyone traveled with a dog....how was it ?

    I guess part of my feeling comes from the fact that while I was walking in 2016 I lost my beloved Harrison. Our 9 year Old English Sheepdog to Cancer. I walked with him everyday at home. My last one the morning I left. We didn’t know he was sick even though I took him for a well visit a week...

    Has anyone traveled with a dog....how was it ?

    I’m wondering if any of you on the forum traveled with your dog. I know I saw a few. Would you do it again? Does it pose a problem for train travel....hostels etc.

    Powering on

    I pleaded with my surgeon to replace both in one surgery. He refused ! Not sure why. I have a feeling the Multiple Sclerosis diagnosis. It made it difficult just finding a surgeon willing to take on my 4 replacement surgeries required. Happy walking and healing Buen Camino 👣

    Hiking umbrella

    That’s exactly the area I was referring to. My hat constantly blew off in that area.

    Hiking umbrella

    When I returned home from my 2016 Camino I purchased the hiking umbrella from the Forum Store. I found the lack of shade one of my hardest trials while walking. I was wondering if anyone has tried it. Does it hold up to the windy situations on the Camino ? Thank you
