Just saying goodbye...
« on: July 25, 2003, 11:29:58 PM »
Hey everyone!!!

I leave for my 3 month walk through Europe on Sunday so I just wanted to say "see ya!"  smile.gif
This year we are walking from France, over the mountains into Spain and then into Portugal.  Some of you may remember I did this last year as well, but this year I am going as an assistant (so i get paid and go for free wink.gif )  Pretty cool.  This is the most amazing thing I have ever done!

The website for the Walk In Europe Program is www.walkineurope.org.  Check it out!  If you click on "past walks" and choose 2002-B from the list, you can see pictures from my Walk last year.

I may be passing some internet cafes along the way, so if I do, I will try to log in and say HI!  I'll be back in November.  Then I will buy my new G5 wink.gif clap.gif

Jay, I'll be looking forward to hearing about this trip when you return. I must say, I'm a little envious. I would love to be tagging along with you guys!

Be safe and have a great time!

Do not fear your enemies.  The worse they can do is kill you.  Do not fear friends.  At worst, they may betray you.
Fear those who do not care; they neither kill nor betray, but betrayal and murder exist because of their silent consent.

Sometimes I walk (all the way) to the concierge, so it's not like I don't get out...

Have a wonderful trip-

Walking Song


Wouldn't it be nice to walk together
Baring our souls while wearing out the leather
We could talk shop, harmonize a song
Wouldn't it be nice to walk along

I'll show you houses of architectural renown
Some are still standing, some have fallen down
Farm houses buried under Canada's snow
Spanish villas on the Boulevards of Mexico

And I'll learn to tell the ash from the oak
And if you don't know I won't make no joke
We'll climb to the top to view the world from above
Or carve our initials in the trunk like teenagers in love

And when we get hungry we'll stop to eat
Gotta think of our stomachs and rest our feet
If we get thirsty we'll have a drink or two
In a mountain top bar with a mountain top view

And when we get tired we'll stop to rest
And if you still want to talk you can bare your breast
If it's winter and cold we'll take a rooming-house room
If it's summer and warm we'll sleep under the moon

And we'll talk about the sports we played
'Bout the time you got busted or the times I got laid
We'll talkof blood and how we were bred
Talk about the folks both living and dead

This song like this walk I find hard to end
Be my lover, be my friend
In sneakers or boots or regulation shoes
Walking beside you I never get the walking blues.

Have a great walking tour of those countries, you'll eat like a king in those places. In Spain and Portugal people know how to live...especially in  the countryside.


Enjoyed your pics from the last trip.
