The Doves

Another window at the church, this time looking into an office. St. Francis (or, to parallel the name of the church, San Francisco) is releasing a few doves, while Our Lady of Fátima averts her gaze.

Lenten Windows

This is another shot of those amazing windows at the church in Ranchos de Taos. This visit was during Lent and the objects in the window were draped in purple. The fan that was necessary back in July hadn’t been needed yet this year.

Dixie Dog, from the back

Remember the other day when I told you about the cook who was going outside to smoke a piece of her cigarette? This is where we went – the back side of the Dixie Dog. I bet if we’d taken the time to look, we could have found her half-smoked cig on the window ledge.

Blocks of Color

If the Caribbean were cut into blocks and stacked up, this is what it would look like.

Some information is missing

For example, what WAS this place? And what did that sign used to say?

If it was near a county line, I’d think it had been a beer store, sited as close as possible to a dry county. But it was in the middle of the county, so that explanation doesn’t seem to make sense.

It was on a hill, though, and commanded a fine view of the county.
