Day 18 - still cold but pursuing intellectual matters
May 2d - Thursday. Very similar to the past week: cloudy, cold and wet for an 18.5 km walk over two mountains. No rain but pretty bone chilling damp cold as you see from the pic. Skies clearing. Have decided to get some rest in Burgos. Will arrive there Fri afternoon and stay til Monday morning giving us time to really see the city AND rest up. Maybe it will warm up a bit. Went to the archaeological dig site at Atapuerca Range which the Spanish are VERY proud of as one of the most important digs in the world. Standing in the cold for an hour while a very enthusiastic guide explained that they are not really sure about much of how prehistoric man developed, although the have lots of theories based on what, to a lawyer is very thin evidence, has confirmed that archaeology is not my thing.

OK...time for some Irving Berlin:
ReplyDeleteI was blue, just as blue as I could be
Every day was a cloudy day for me
Then good luck came a-knocking at my door
Skies were gray but they're not gray anymore
Blue skies smiling at me
Nothing but blue skies do I see
Bluebirds singing a song
Nothing but bluebirds, all day long
Never saw the sun shining so bright
Never saw things going so right
Noticing the days hurrying by
When you're in love, my how they fly
Blue days, all of them gone
Nothing but blue skies from now on
I should care if the wind blows east or west
I should fret if the worst looks like the best
I should mind if they say it can't be true
I should smile that's exactly what I do
I should care if the wind blows east or west
I should fret if the worst looks like the best
I should mind if they say it can't be true
I should smile that's exactly what I do

Hope tomorrow finds you stepping into real spring!
