I didn't know about bringing a stone from home. I'm glad I asked! Is the iron cross far from SJPP? In other words, how far will I be carrying that extra weight (and I bet I'll be glad to set it down, which I guess is the point!)?
Candance, we are talking about 2 different pillars! The Cruz de Ferro, which is where tradition has it for Pilgrims to leave a stone from home and the beautiful pillar in the doorway as you enter the Cathedral de Santiago ( that's the one mentioned in the Blog girlsontheway. And has been cordoned off for several years now). AnneChoweth said:The pillar they mentioned above ^ I saw on the blog "girls on the way" that it was tied off. I don't know if that's temporary or not though. I was looking forward to touching it.

Suggest you bring a very small stone from home. A large rock would not be necessary. 8)
