		<description><![CDATA[I have some of the things from the equipment list. I&#8217;ve picked up a pack, a towel, a headlamp, and I&#8217;ve bought some shoes that I&#8217;m testing over the summer. If they work well I&#8217;ll buy another pair a month or so before I leave. Oh, and Sandy bought me a right smashing Tilley for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Well, the passport package is almost ready to be sent off, I&#8217;m slowly getting together my gear, and we hope to start booking tickets this month. I still have to pin down my son, Kieran, as to whether he will be joining me on the camino. I&#8217;ve suggested that if he doesn&#8217;t want to do [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Only three months and four days, as of this post, until the Camino. It is kind of sneaking up on me. Equipment is down to the last few items of clothing. I&#8217;m waffling on the shoes (do I really need ankle high or not) and the pants. I&#8217;m really liking the North Face Paramounts, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I’ve been losing sleep a lot lately. Partially, I’m sure, due to excitement and worry about my upcoming pilgrimage. It is making me a tad cranky and foggy, but I’ll muddle through. A friend, Rick, who is a trained hypnotist came over to help we ease off some of my worries and help me relax [...]]]></description>

It is thought to be tendonitis and it is suggested that I shouldn’t stress the foot for a week or so. Okie doke. One week of taking it easy for me. It [...]]]></description>
