“My dear people, I know it seems as if I've already been gone for weeks, but I'm just about to start (it's Thursday morning) the main route of the Way of St James. Yes, I've completed over 90 miles coming from Lourdes, but this is the main pilgrimage path to Santiago and it starts with a climb over the Pyrenees! So by the time you read this I should be getting close to Pamplona. You are all in my heart and prayers as I make this pilgrimage. God bless you all.”…Fr. Dave (Note: You may follow along with Fr. Dave’s online journal at http://frdavecamino.blogspot.com.)
