morada, easter sunday

Prior to the arrival of Spanish settlers in the 1700s, the indigenous Tewa people had a long-established village in this very location.

This church – the Penitente Morada – dates to around 1730 and remains a sacred site for members of the Penitente Brotherhood, a group of Catholics of Spanish descent who dedicate themselves to memorializing the spirit of the penance and the Passion of Christ.

There are approximately a billion photos of the sign in front of this building, which is precisely why I didn’t show it to you: I bet you’ve already seen it. And if not, just Google it.

And anyway, there was no way I was passing up the opportunity to get a shot of this flag-intensive place.

Yay for Texas! It doesn’t get much Route 66 mileage (186, the second lowest of the eight states on the route) but at least it got the midpoint.

(Kansas – poor Kansas – only gets 13 miles.)

her life was in the toilet

 

Seligman, Arizona, cracked me up. They’ve hung a lot (like maybe everything?) on their Route 66 location and the results were often hilarious.

Like this poor woman, who not only has neither hair nor hands (or a lower body, probably) and has somehow ended up in the toilet.

That billboard is TOTALLY selling the idea of taking the exit for “Tucumc”, isn’t it?
