Hello all,

I wanted to share a "guest blog" article that I wrote about walking the Camino Francés in 2004:

http://www.notesfromspain.com/2009/04/29/epifania-guest-blogger-hollis-duncan/

The article includes a video that my friend Thompson narrates, and is a pretty nice audio / visual compliment.

If you have time PLEASE COMMENT on the article. Shameless, I know, but if my article generates the most comments I might win an iPod Shuffle, which would be a nice token / reimbursement for writing 527 words!

Buen Camino ... a todos
