*For walkers, riders, drivers, bikers, skateboarders, and others; it's the attitude, not the method of locomotion

A wind farm in the distance. I can’t help but think of Don Quijote when I see these, with the wind turbines standing in for the windmills.Poppies, rocks, and Camino signs. All ever-present here in northern Spain.Occasional crosses mark the journey. It is not always clear what they represent, or why they appear where they do.As the wind-power generators get closer, I wonder how even a cracked brain like Don Quijote could possibly contemplate jousting against these monsters, with their arms so high off the ground.Hermitages appear along the route.Sometimes the hermitages have a sign identifying which saint lived there, sometimes not. This one did. St. Brigida made her home here.Angel’s ruined church.And another view of the ruined church next to Angel’s house.
