It all sounds so simple to begin with - until you delve into it. I've been thinking about how best to journal my pilgrimage. Yes, journal's a good word. Old school pen and paper? In Microsoft Word? Another blog? Then I thought about Substack. While I'm not entirely sure what it is or how it works it felt like it might be a better alternative, mainly because it's possible to click on Faith and Spirituality and the majority of the posts I get then will be in that topic, so I'll be reading and writing with like minds and, hopefully, will find it easier to build a following. (I still have this vague idea that there may be a book somewhere at the end, and even if not there may be people who will find my meanderings and ramblings helpful.) And if that following interacts that in itself may be helpful.
So if you'd be interested in reading my first post - and possibly subscribing (it's free) - please do. You'll find it here.

In other news exciting things could be happening both family and Zac's wise but I'm not allowed to say anything yet.
So, where was I holiday wise?
I remember. I suggested to Nuora she would make a better job of translating and writing signs than the Italian/English translator on this one.
Always 'harvest the organic waste'!
On the final day in Garda Husband and I went to Sirmione, a little town leading to a narrow headland. There was an impressive castle at the gate of the town - with a pink crocodile in its moat . . .
It was here I had my biggest ice cream of the holiday. A double scoop passionfruit cheesecake cone.
At the end of the headland the water was very shallow, lying over sandy-coloured flat rocks.
There was a sculpture exhibition running with artworks scattered all over the town. We spotted a few, some of which I liked more than others. Identity with noise and silence.
But I don't think this headless man was part of the exhibition.

I'll head over to ss and have a look. I think it is mostly for paid content, but people also chat too. I'm not sure if it will serve you better than a blog, but perhaps it will give you the community that you want.
I follow several substack accounts, so you've provided me with another. I'll be there!
I like the pink crocodile. I've read your substack entry.
