Jake Update- better

So the Vet's did ultrasound and Xray's and can't really "see" anything, and it looks like it was some sort of "food" poisoning that set Jake so sick.

That is what we hope-- Jake came home last night, seems himself, and now today will be the real test as Liz feeds him and then we see if his digestive system is back to normal--- if that all works we will be over this extreme scare--- Jake allowing Vet's to stick needles in him was just not Jake-like, so Liz knew he was very sick, but this time there were some big differences ulike the two times Jake ingested corn cob's whole and had to have surgery.

I have much to tell you, about the trip to O'Cebreiro, about the ardous and long trip yesterday, about wine with a hospitaliero, -- a lot, but it will have to wait--got some walking to do----

However, one thing-- saw this amazingly big statue of a pilgrim ("monumento do Peregrino" on the web should get you there) at one of the high points on this morning's walk-- Alto San Roque, about 1,300 meters--

Anyway, I wrote a postcard this morning saying "it's all downhill" from here in O'Cebreiro!!!!!! To be clear, and this I'll share, I have NEVER been more wrong than I was this morning!!!! Up, down, up, down, up down, and now, only 10k into today's walk, it appears that we are nearing the downhill--- but I'll be believe it when I see it!!!!

Peace
