The Pilgrimage to Santiago de Compostela is a centuries old trek across northern Spain done by following "The Camino de Santiago", the road to Santiago. Before February of 2001 I had not heard of "The Camino" nor of the Pilgrimage. By the end of October of that year I was in Santiago after completing the walk myself. I thought that when I reached Santiago my journey was over but I see now that my journey started way before I got to Spain and still has not ended.

Three Day Pass
I took Kate for a walk down main street this morning and was surprised by how dead it was. Whole blocks without a single parked car. Then we stopped at the hardware store to get Kate's weekly nibble of a doggie snack and I found out today is President's Day. P-Day is one of those three-day-weekend holidays that replaces the celebration of a holiday on the day that it actually falls on. This one replaces the holidays that celebrated the birthdays of our sixteen president, Abraham Lincoln (February 12th), and our first president, George Washington (February 22nd). So, in order to take advantage of this wonderful holiday I will be taking the blog day off. See you tomorrow
