Dorothy's diary 1st June

Wishful thinking

Monday 1st June

We had been told that there was a large cross at the side of the I – 40. It was not a lie. The cross is huge. Encircling it is a very moving depiction of the Stations of the Cross. There was also a replica of the Shroud of Turin and a film explaining all about it, using modern medical techniques. Obviously very Catholic but nonetheless very imotive.

Later on the journey we call at Elk City and the Museum of the historic Route 66. Very interesting.

Our hotel in Shawnee is right next door to Cracker Barrel so we don’t have far to walk to get a good meal.
