What now?

So it's been a while since I've written... For some reason posting lots of pictures seems to be an acceptable substitute for genuine communication but I realize that people probably miss all my witty and profound musings on life so I thought I'd at least let people know what I'm up to these days.

Well, it all started on the Ruta Maya this year when Marybeth and I were talking about the Camino pilgramige in Spain. It's a 500 mile walk that many of our extremely holy friends have done (examples: Miriam Bianchi, Fr. Mark Wendling, Carrie Giebel, Shirly McClaine.... or something like that) and it comes highly recommended. We said to ourselves, why not go home, work like crazy for a month to save the money and then just jet off to Spain and do it? Well, wouldn't you know our friend Kathryn in Canada was thinking the exact same thing. The moral of the story is that tommorrow I'm flying to Madrid to rendevous with Marybeth and Kathryn for our 500 mile adventure.

I'll try to post pictures and any anecdotes that I think might be of interest here so if you find yourself with nothing to do check in and you can see how I'm scandalizing an entirely new culture. Also, please know that I'll be praying for all who read this and I hope you keep me in your prayers also. I'm always amazed to see who actually reads my blog, I'm consantly (ok, like once a month) running into people who tell me they've been reading my blog and are praying for me and the kids in Belize-- it's so edifying. The other week I was at an ordination of an FUS grad and Bernard was a household name amongst all the Franuniv people-- they had all read about him and were praying for him. Prayer is just amazing!
