Arrived in Santiago June 1st after 31 days on the Camino. I'm working on updating this blog
so check back later for my story. In short it was a wonderful experience!

I have decided to make the Camino pilgrimage starting on my 72nd birthday, May 2, 2016.
you are invited to follow my progress on this Blog.

Tomorrow will mark the beginning of my training. The plan calls for a modest start of walking one
mile each day for the first 30 days and begining a more modest diet designed to reduce my weight
in preparation for the 500 plus mile walk.

wish me luck
