- Time of past OR future Camino
- Too many and too often!
When I'm walking in Spain I sometimes make a palm cross or two from the fronds of the cabbage palms you often find by the path. Just to keep in practice though I do sometimes offer one as a souvenir to any passing pilgrim. Struck me today that I could do something similar with the broad leaf rush that grows in boggy ground beside the cycle path. Much thinner and less durable but transience sometimes has its own appeal.
On to the pub with a little detour past the site of Melin Mynach (Monks Mill) - a former watermill dating back as far as the 12th century though what can be seen today is much later. Bluebells in bloom. Including white bluebells if that makes any sense!![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
