Poor Junebug was a wreck this morning. Today is the first day of school, so it was back to getting up at 3:30am for me. The alarm went off and as I was plodding down the hall straight to the coffee machine, she dragged herself out of bed to start her usual morning routine. I think she was a little confused, because when I get up it doesn’t usually hurt her this bad. Her ears were drooping as low as I have ever seen them and her tiny feet were dragging quite a bit. Despite how bad she felt, she still made her way down the hall to go potty in the backyard. I think out of habit she went to where Jethro’s bed is to check on him, but once she got there she remembered he isn’t here anymore. That kinda stung. I let her outside to do her business and then quickly back in. I just couldn’t watch that sweet little wreck suffer anymore, so I put her back in bed. She didn’t fight it and went back to sleep instantly. I hope to golly the first day of school isn’t this rough on my baby bassets.

The Journey in Between: A Thru-Hiking Adventure on El Camino de Santiago
by Mr Keith Foskett
4.5 Stars (397 Reviews)
Genre: Biographies & Memoirs

FREE for a limited time

Sometimes, the best adventures happen by chance.

El Camino de Santiago, also known as The Way, is the fabled path that weaves through French and Spanish countryside to its hallowed destination at Santiago de Compostella.

Thousands attempt to hike its entirety each year: some succeed, many fail.

One man struggling at a crossroads in life meets a stranger in a Greek bar who points him in the right direction. A week later, he finds himself starting El Camino, a 1000-mile hike that will change him.

From the pain of blisters and extremes of temperature to encountering kleptomaniacs, fake faith healers and being threatened with arrest in Spain for ‘not sleeping’, his hike was far from normal.

This is the story of one man’s walk, but it speaks to all who see life itself as a journey and are alive to the revelations that an escape to nature can bring. Written with insight, observation and a healthy dose of humour.

As this book shows, it is rarely the start and the finish that count, but the journey in between.
