Several years ago, I read one of the many books available about the Camino. I'm not even sure what drew me to it, but in reading, I thought it might be an adventure for another day. This year, Jack and Ellen came across the movie The Way, and told Kathy and me that we should go see it. They were intrigued.
A couple weeks later, it came to a nearby theater in Worcester, and we saw it just after Christmas of last year. No question, I have to do it. We couldn't avoid the excitement.
Jack and Ellen are committed and so I too will join them. The date ... Spring 2013. Unfortunately, Kathy's knee and ankle will not allow her to go, but in spirit, she will be with me.
I guess that pretty well seals the deal on my retirement. That will have to happen first. Ahead of us now for this adventure: the planning, the gear purchases, the web site reviews, the blogs, the maps, the Spanish language, and the books. So much to do, so little time. Let's get this thing started right now. May 2013 will come quickly.
