Bicycle ride to Temple and Fatima

Used Map my Ride and a GPS to plan a route from Dunstable, MA to Temple, NH, then to New Ipswich, NH and back.  It was great fun to explore some new roads out there!  Part of the loop was a snowmobile trail and a few gravel descents were also involved which kept it interesting.  There were small signs near the cemetery in  Pepperell which pointed towards a shrine for our lady of Fatima.  I found the unusual place of worship in a backyard.
