5/15/07 IN TRAINING
Here are all the parts. Hat with Guernica peace pin; hearing aids, all the better to hear you with my dear; glasses, all the better to see you with my dear; teeth, all my own to be used to bite the infamous camino dogs on their rears; backpack with too much weight; treking poles which use muscles one never believed they had but keep you vertical; and the right knee brace to make sure I don't make an ill conceived motion with that leg. Of course there are the pills, for the heart, and aches and pains; water at all times and a few clothes But, I am almost ready to go.
I hope to post to this blog regularly as long as I am walking on the Camino. That will depend on how my body holds up. If you google 'Saint James Way' you will find out more information than you ever hoped to know about this pilgrimage. I am starting at Le Puy, France and hope to make it all the way to the ocean at Finisterre, Spain.
