Mission Nombre de Dios
Cool
breeze. Sparkling lagoon. Shadows and shade. Quaint fences. Peace and quiet.
It doesn’t really matter that there’s not much to do but walk and look and
enjoy, because that’s plenty. No matter the weather, there’s really not a bad
time to be here (unless it’s during a thunderstorm . . . not too fun). Blue
skies are best, of course, so if you’re visiting the grounds and you happen to
have them, make sure to take full advantage!
Colonial Quarter
Here
at Colonial Quarter there are many activities, but my favorite one is just
taking my legs from place to place and checking out the displays and artifacts. I believe
this particular building is part of the British Colonial section, and showcases
items from that era. The framed image at bottom left is a silhouette, and the
folks at the museum will create one for you or your loved one for a fee. Looking out the windows,
I’m shocked that I managed to get a shot without any people. Colonial Quarter
is frequented by families, bus-loads of schoolkids, and folks in
historical garb. Regarding the historical garb, that’s my kind of place. :-)
