One time I was walking along the Camino de Santiago through a eucalyptus forest with Julia and Christine and Matt and Marcus. Marcus is a trained mountain man/ lumberjack and we said, “Tell us about these trees, Marcus.” But he just gave us a vague description and I said, “That’s not what I meant.” SoContinueContinue reading “On Koalas, bedbugs…and true love”

I’m home
Reflections: There’s stuff in my house. My mind is having a hard time with this. I have a drawer full of shirts. SHIRTS. I can wear any of them, because they’re all clean. Gluten-free pizza. Bet your boots I ate one half of that puppy. No regrets. I didn’t leave my shower very clean whenContinueContinue reading “I’m home”
July 28–PRAY FOR ALL OF US
Pray for safety, protection, and love. ❤ See you soon! XOXOXOOXXOXO!
July 27–Last but not least, our boy Carl
It’s fair to say that Carl is the celebrity of the group. One of my pilgrim’s told me, “I feel like he’s way cooler than us. I still hold him on the Socceresque pedestal.” Another pilgrim was like, “I’m so glad he’s coming; I LOVE Carl.” So! Pray for this one…the beloved one.
July 26–Mi padre
This is my dad. Just pray that he makes it. And that I make it. And that everyone makes it.
July 24–Mezies
You know me, guys. Pray for me. You know I’ll appreciate it.
July 23–Paulie Waulie Doodle could use your prayers
Want to know what I love about having Paul along? We sing songs together. All the time. Sometimes we play a game called, “Sing as much of a Broadway Musical together that we can remember.” Which entails us starting at the first song and getting as far as we can. We switch parts and doContinueContinue reading “July 23–Paulie Waulie Doodle could use your prayers”
July 22-Pray for my girl Jess
I probably wouldn’t have made it without this one. This is Jessica. She is a coworker of mine, soft-spoken and sweet. One day we were working and I started talking about this trip I was going to take in summer of 2013 to the Camino de Santiago. “Here,” I said, “I’ll forward you my groupContinueContinue reading “July 22-Pray for my girl Jess”
July 21–Prayers for beebee Graham-slam
This is Graham. My sibs met him playing soccer, and then we realized he was a neighbor and they became closer friends. Sometimes he talks smack to me, but I know he’s kidding. If he ever finds an animal, he tries to rescue it. Squirrels, birds, you name it…he’s picked it up (rabies, man!) andContinueContinue reading “July 21–Prayers for beebee Graham-slam”
July 20–Pray for Car-lay
This gorgeous girl is a grace to have along. Not only is she good at Spanish, a force to be reckoned with generally, supportive, beautiful, and graceful…she’s also an expert on chocolate chip cookies. Such things are vital on excursions. This pilgrim goes to school with some of the kidz in the group. We knewContinueContinue reading “July 20–Pray for Car-lay”
