Almost there, with the trail now full of people since Sarria. I should be finished this weekend.
Also, Dave is well past the 1200 mile mark and feeling the full effects of Pennsylvania. It hurts!!

We’re closing in on the end and I’m not sure Im ready to be done. We’re back into the mountains and views are opening up all around us.
Beth and Andrew have been joined by more friends to hike with for a few weeks.

I’m back in the rhythm and within a couple of weeks from the end. I’m meeting new people, reacquainting my legs with hills, and eating relentlessly. I love hiking!!!

Dave has passed Harper’s Ferry and pushing into Pennsylvania and the rocks!

Today rounds off my last hike into Léon before taking a scheduled break to visit my family for a birthday party, followed by a long detour back to the trail via England, where I watched my beloved Mighty Blues in their unexpected play off final.

we also hear again from Beth and Andrew as they take on the first part of the Virginia Triple Crown; Dragon’s Tooth in the rain.

The first half of my Camino hike is done and I’ve arrived at Léon for my scheduled break with family (and a soccer match).

Dave is near the halfway point on the Appalachian Trail and has recovered his mojo.

Past the two-week mark and into the Meseta, the journey continues with intimate conversation, communal meals, and changing, yet still beautiful scenery.
We also catch up with Beth and Andrew as they move on from Trail Days.

The Meseta is about to end and I’m about to head south for a few days for a family party. The break has come at a good time to help my feet recover from a pounding.
Beth and Andrew take responsibility for Rufus, a bowling ball. Weird? Yep.

I’m at Burgos on my Camino adventure and about to head into the Meseta; an entirely different landscape from these first two weeks. Let’s catch up with days number 9-12.
also on the show, Dave has returned to Montana and is readjusting to life back on trail. Beth and I were unable to communicate in time, so we’ll hear how she and Andrew have been doing, as well as their first experience of Trail Days.
