The ones on the left are plastic propane bottle shakers given out by the Skilgas propane company. The ones on the right are souvenir shakers from the state of Colorado. I picked them up for my sister who collects salt and pepper shakers. I was smart enough to go out with only a little money. I figured I would be less tempted to buy something that was too expensive if I had to go back home to get more money to pay for it. My plan worked as I only spent fifteen dollars and that includes the dollar I paid for a gardening book and the dollar I donated to a good cause.
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.

Yard Sale Mania!
Today was the start of a three day town wide yard sale. My finds:
