What's In This Blog

I created this blog for my journal. I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In this blog I keep many of the things I come across as a member of the church. I also share my experiences on the ACE Train and getting to work, my experiences in Manteca where we have lived for three years, and other things I think are noticeable.

Our Lady of Peace Shrine: Pine Bluffs, Wyoming

Pine Bluffs is the first city you reach in Wyoming traveling I80 going west.  There is a large Virgin Mary you can see from the freeway, so I chose to investigate further.  In addition to the large virgin is a depiction of the crucifixion of Jesus.  It is interesting how there is nothuing of the Garden of Gethsemane nor the resurrection.
