Come back to read about it tomorrow!
Sunday Dicky showed Brody and me 'the mission'. It is San Javier del Bac, the white dove of the desert, but everybody in Tucson just calls it 'the mission'.
It was constructed 1783 - 1797 by Tohono O'odham under Franciscan and Spanish direction.
The scaffolding is part of an ongoing restoration. The exterior cement stucco finish is being removed and replaced with a traditional plaster of lime, sand and cactus mucilage.
Outside the mission are many food booth where you can buy Indian Frybread!I am trying out my new western outfit: sombrero and cowboy boots.
Then I checked out how the Frybread is made and we met a very nice guy whose nickname is actually 'Duck'! Dicky Duck found that most amusing.
After this we decided to take a look inside the mission and I think it is a most beautiful place!
You can buy special candles and light them so in the little side chapel we lit a candle for Gretchen's Mom Dorothy for her to be all well very soon!
And while Mike is visiting here our friends Momo, Sassy, Scylla and Charybdis and Charlotte have been visiting Asta in New York! They went to the Today show and look at the sign they are holding - I just had to show you this:

What a beautiful Mission!It sounds like you had a wonderful time. My beans went to Mission San Juan Bautista on Friday. Have you ever been there? My beans had to point out all the wonder paw prints left in the Adobe tile inside the Chapel to my Grandpawrents. Us kitties sure to like to leave our mark, and when those missionaires set the Adobe tiles out in the sun to dry while building the chapel, we ran across them, forever leaving our mark, and letting our presence be known. Hehe...
