May Post!!!!

I figure I better get busy and write a blog in May, or it will slip away.

I am embarking on a new career!! I am presently beginning my career as a long distance hiker. I must say that I have only managed two miles so far, but I am aiming at about 20 miles!!! How about that for an old gal like myself.

I have hiking poles from llbean, getting special shoes as I am a diabetic so have to take great care of my feet, and trying to hike several times a week.

The goal is being able to complete the Camino de Santiago de Compostela in Spain. Some of you may remember that Naomi did that a couple of years ago. I jokingly told her that I should do that and she took me up on it, and so..... I am in training. We're aiming at the summer of 2011. Seems a bit soon to me, but I don't have to do anything but keep on training. That, in itself, will give us a time line.

Wish me well!
