Congratulations! What happened with the sciatica you were suffering with early on?I found a new use for my trekking poles! Laundry lines. Just extend inside the open window. Worked perfectly. I'm in Santiago and feeling very successful. My Camino is finished. I did t have a single blister!! I used Vaseline on my feet every night and pulled on a clean pair of socks to wear to bed. No bed bugs either!! I'm tired but elated.

And slaying stick to fight the Giants on the Meseta--Sa@Joodle , congratulations on your completion.
In my travels I found numerous uses for my walking pole. These included:
1) steady stick, when leaping from one wooden raft to another a few days out of Le Puy, and many other similar circumstances;
2) brush stick, to keep back over growth;
3) swagger stick, to help measure my stride;
4) timing stick, to help measure my rate of walking;
5) pick up stick, to help retrieve the hat blown off my head;
6) saluting stick, when acknowledging a courtesy from, say, a motorist;
7) camera stick, to rest the camera on when taking photos;
8) rest stick, to lean on when waiting for something;
9) guard stick, to show lack of fear to dogs thar are snarling/ menacing;
10) ...
And others I have now forgotten.

I don't use trekking poles but my wife is very good at fending off dogs with them, she actually saved my life with them on the Le Puy route, fending off a rather viscous dog that had hold of my waterproof pants with me in them.I found a new use for my trekking poles!
