Starting Over

I've been home now from the Camino de Santiago for a few months now.  I made it home in time for Thanksgiving...and had so much to feel grateful for.

I was so disappointed that I couldn't blog from my iPhone while I was in Spain that I just gave up trying to log on and make any updates through this medium.  I still don't know if it was my cell service, the SIM card I tried using, my phone, or blogger.com.  The photos I took with my phone didn't show up in my photo library so that I could select them and include them on the post.  Words I tried to write literally jumped, springing  up and down on my phone screen as I tried to type them.  My iPhone screen wouldn't let me see all of my editing or command options.  I'm not a technology expert by any means...but I'm not completely disconnected.  Something should have worked. I tried everything I could until I finally had to admit that I was stumped.






I ended up posting my hiking days on FaceBook, the very thing I was trying to avoid when I started this blog.  I dreaded flooding my FaceBook pages with everything I wanted to share...so I gave brief over views on FB on a daily basis, but left out much of what I wanted to explain.  Social media posts on FaceBook and Instagram can only be so long before they're just too much.




I am planning on doing a gear review that details how my cruelty free pack worked out for me on my 500 mile trek.  It should work as a great opportunity to let you know which things came in the most handy and which things I could have just left at home, cruelty free or not.  I figure that I can get some photos in and explain to you how it went over there at the same time.

The trip on the camino was incredible. I can't wait to show you and tell you about some things I saw and some things that happened.

I'm ready to try and make up for my blog posting blunders.  I will begin to post Camino related stories each weekend.
