Our Lady of Guadalupe first appeared to Juan Diego (the campesino by her feet) in 1531. I had seen this OLOG several years ago on a previous trip to SATX, so I dragged Molly back to it for a photo op. I like this version of her best because she's small and rustic. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lady_of_Guadalupe See where this picture was taken. [?]

This archway, decorated with Talavera tiles from Mexico, was moved to the courtyard of the San Antonio Museum of Art from the home of Doctor Urrutia. You can see it from inside the museum through these windows, or outside (where I am) in the mirror glass. Here's Doctor Urrutia's story: www.texasescapes.com/SanAntonioTx/Dr-Aureliano-Urrutia-Ti... 200 West Jones Avenue, San Antonio, TX [?]

The church is the oldest extant shrine to OLoG in the U.S. It was closed every time I went by, so I never got to see the inside. See where this picture was taken. [?]

This is the excellent stuff I brought back from San Antonio. My host rosenbeans and I love lotería -- her lucky lotería card is La Chalupa (the boat) and mine is El Nopal (the cactus). We were on a mission to find this new set designed by San Antonio artist Cristina Sosa Noriega. We drove to an H-E-B Plus superstore way on the other side of town to score these. While we were there, I got the Virgin of Guadalupe candle. You can read the story about bringing the candle back to Massachusetts here . The milagros and talavera tiles came from a very nice vendor at Bussey's Flea Market .
