Gothic Line Prayer Journey day 13 or Day 7 Revisited

We returned to Mt Bucciana because if you can recall we just fell short of where we needed to be.  We set out from Poggio Ciciablo after calling our source, who we still don't know his name, only his cell number.  And just like he said, follow the marker to a certain point and then start looking for blue marks on trees.  Sure enough we had seen these blue marks when we were in this area last time but had no clue what they meant.  What he failed to to tell us was that after meandering along the ridge and then in the mountains at a very light and easy pace that this deviation from the normal trail markers would be a long steep journey (Joyce had some problems keeping upright). We found many markers along the way that made this place very easy to find.

  You can get where your going if you have the right directions right.  Finally after a pretty grueling climb we arrived at 1223 mt. It was so cold up there that we had to put on our scarves  Pretty amazing since it is now May 31st and should be well into the 80's by now.

We had a great time there praying and reconciling the land back to the Lord. The Kings Kids have arrived. there was a sign in box for those who wanted to leave a message and another shrine to the saints. We staked our claim prayed and had church.
Joyce says she still hates to hike in the mountains, specially when she keeps sliding down them, but apparently there is no place she would rather be than with me and wherever the Lord tells her to go.
