Calamity

This blog is being written for a mixture of family, friends and sangha - hopefully it'll provide a place to share the pilgrimage and maybe some other pilgrims will make guest appearences.

Calamity is my pilgrimage moniker, hence the title.

No idea if it's to do with Martha Jane "Calamity Jane" Cannary (1852 - 1903) who "
was renowned for her excellent marksmanship, preference for men's clothing, and bawdy behaviour. Jane was said to have been an Army scout, a bullwhacker, a nurse, a cook, a prostitute, a prospector, a gambler, a heavy drinker and one of the most foul-mouthed people in the West."
