I did actually wear holes in the bottoms of my shoes walking this adventure. Did I still wear them today on a quick jaunt around the block? You betcha! Did it take until today, Sunday the 31st to lace them back on my feet?? You betcha!
Finishing my walk on Thursday, having a birthday dinner with Bridget and Dylan who kindly fed me, gave me beautiful flowers, and returned me home after the 30ish mile finale to my Stay at Home Camino was truly one of the best days of my life.
When the kids were growing up, I would often tell them about the 3 best days of my life, the day I married Neal, the day Dylan was born, and the day Margot was born. All these years later, this remains the core truth of my heart.. Our family was fortunate to have many years of peace, health and love, but some days have to be marked as particularly spectacular.
So, this year, I added a best day to my list, in that space where graduations, engagements, new jobs, live.
