Flying solo on this one while Barry is on an adventure in Colorado. Update on Goat Beauty Pageant Rodeo - we have momentum and the excitement is building. Texture - the texture of life is worth paying attention to.

Goat news, Navy history and Navy Goat history, More Camino talk - will keep circling back to the Camino, Roots & Rituals retreat update, Identity and Intention.

Camino Texture, Leon, Motorcycles and a Retreat.

Our lengthiest podcast yet. We could go on for DAYS about the Camino - what we saw, experienced and trying to figure out how we are changed. Cause we are. But we will uncover more as time goes on.

How do we reintegrate? First we were dropped into France with a backpack and we walked 190 miles thru towns and farm fields. Now we are home. And I prayed "let the camino rearrange me" and it did.

Thelma and Louise are back home too and have reintegrated succussfully.

Barry has an adventure bike and is taking two trips with a dear friend in the next month or so. He's already grinning.

Roots & Ritual: A Retreat of Tea, Flowers and Purpose. I'll be discussing identity, values, and intention. It's going to be a beautiful experience. The creating and planning is a beautiful experience.

Day 5 complete on Camino de Santiago. We are loving it.

Working on getting our podcast groove set. Always goats first - then blog discussion and then what's happening with us - camino is front and center right now.

Twenty eight minutes of clever banter.

We get to talk about all the things front and center for us and hope that it lands with someone else. Goat updates, Barry has Golden Goat Energy, camino training updates, Vikki pitches two fits and how fun that can be. We talk about confirmation bias and how to combat it - we all need to think critically. New music from my Moma to enjoy at the end of the pod. We are having a blast - hope you enjoy.

Goat and Goat Lover continue tag-teaming the Goat Locker podcast. We talk about what is going on in our lives - goats, training for our big Camino hike, the freedom of being tobacco free, Goat beauty pageant update and thoughts about my brother, his 57th birthday and his legacy 4 years after his death, March 1, 2021.

Goat news - there will be a goat beauty pageant this fall and our herd will grow - it will double. I have approval and am declaring - there will be 4 goats this year. Hooray! Baby goats are magic.

Retired and reunited after 4 years. Big changes for us but we are loving it. Having a lot of fun.

Barry is now an influencer. He launched BearKat of All Trades on instagram and facebook. Check him out!

Camino de Santiago in May. We are training. Physical, mental and spiritual pilgrimage.

This is the 10th podcast! First one was in Aug of 23 and it was a short introduction. The first full length pod was September 10th. So this starts the 2nd season!

Thelma and Louise go to summer sleep away camp while we pack up the Omaha house. Barry and I talk about the move, the dump, books and two upcoming Golden Goats.
