The time has come to let this Camino now take a rest. It has served us well as a training tool for the Camino de Santiago in Spain. We are now double checking our list of equipment and preparing to head to Spain. Our hope is that other trekkers will discover this blog and walk their own Camino de los Santos. Hopefully by next spring all the major road construction will be completed and other paths to Saint Mary in Plano and Saint Patrick in Yorkville will be developed. There is some redundancy in the present Camino - but we have been looking at alternate routes which we will publish in the future. Discussion is underway with both parishes to develop permanent Camino teams to continue to promote the concept of walking pilgrimages - for both teens and adults.
Work is progressing on the new shrine in Yorkville and should be mostly completed by next April or May. With the new shrine and alternate paths we have hope for continuance of this Camino.
As we move from this blog we return to Dale and Arlene's Camino - we hope you follow our adventure into and across northern Spain. We are allowing ourselves 45 days in Spain - so with the grace of God and using good old common sense we will be able to make it all the way to Saniago de Compostela and the "end of the world"!
Buen Camino
Dale and Arlene
