      davebugg replied to the thread Fear versus Reality.
      Fears and Anxieties over doing new stuff tends to go away when we actually do that new stuff. With a distance walking Pilgrimage, experience and knowledge is gained which not only allows for the fading away of Fears and Anxieties, but it also...

      davebugg reacted to SYates's post in the thread Fear versus Reality with Love - Red heart Love - Red heart.
      I thought it might be useful for new pilgrims to read about what kind of concerns veteran pilgrims had before their first Camino and what really was an issue (or not!) for them during that first and following Caminos. Having fears before...

      For wet weather walking, there are a number of thing that I will do and not do. Here are a few that may add to what you are already doing. Apply a good layer of goop (there are a number of choices) to your feet to keep a barrier between skin...

      davebugg reacted to Bob Howard's post in the thread An Update with Thank you Thank you.
      Davebugg, I live about 30 minutes upstream from Glenwood Springs, and I know the venue of which you speak. There is congestive heart failure in my family, and I get a cardiac checkup every six months. So far, at 78, I seem to be holding up. I've...
