Saturday, August 26 Walk: 3 miles Ox Cart: 0 Temperature? Who knows! It was a fine day. What can I say? It was a pilgrim party, a huge pilgrim party that started with photos and music and speeches at Howard Park. It became a parade, spanning about a mile and including marching band, through town. There was a somber period as we prayed at the graves of Father Sorin and the brothers who traveled with him from Vincennes to South Bend. It was pretty much contained chaos, especially so when we arrived on campus. Mass was followed by a huge picnic on South Quad. Although the school and community celebrated around us, it was a bittersweet day for the core pilgrims. I realize posts have been on the dry side (just the facts, ma'am) and skeletal. I had intended meatier recaps of each day but the Trail became bigger than I had ever imagined. Even if I had retained more, had more time to pass it on to you, I don't believ...
Wow that sign is almost like a shout out to idiots. Lol.
