The Shrine to focus on today is Our Lady of Guadalupe in Plano located at Saint Mary Church. This morning Arlene and I trekked to the Shrine. It took about 3 hours and 10 minutes to go from our home in Bristol to Plano. Temperature was comfortable - warm but not hot. We discovered that when you walk the back country roads you get a first hand opportunity to see how well or how poorly some roads are maintained. Since most of the shoulders are filled with weeds that create extra drag on our boots - we chose to walk the blacktop. It is interesting how quickly 3 hours passes. We did stop twice for short 5 minute breaks. Upon arrival at the Shrine we said our prayers of thanksgiving for safelty on our trek. Then we spent another 15 minutes at Saint Mary's adoration chapel before we headed back home.
Buen Camino
