4 Days Ago
In two days I leave for Spain to hike 70 miles of the Camino Santiago with my 70 yr old mother in law, my wife, and my wife's cousin as part of my mother in law's celebration of her turning 70. I would prefer to hike the whole 500 miles from France to Spain, but I don't have a month of vacation that I can take. We will be in the rain for days on end. Maybe, I will find you between the rain drops? You said that I would find you in the water along the trail on my travels. So I can believe that you will share the journey with me...the cool drops of rain striking my rain jacket and wide brim hat....reminders that you are there with me. Will I dream of you when I slumber, warm in my bed after a day in the wet? Will I daydream of the twisted sexual fantasies of what I would have love to have done to you? I am sure my mind will drift, as it always does when I am hiking, to thoughts of you. I remember you, I try to live a life for TWO, and I honor you by simply remembering....carrying your memory in my heart as I go forth on my adventures....hoping you are smiling as you look down upon me.
