January 2005 Photos of Lourdes' Business:
-- the House and etc. --
Two views from the front porch
the Shrine now has a mesh-covering, as the doves were
crapping too much on the holy statues.  Lou debates
serious matters with her visiting 4th brother, Calloy.
We visited the tomb of Lou's Father (d. 1985),
which we previously rebuilt to last longer,
for a solemn ceremony.  It's in a Catholic
cemetery right on the coast, 10 minutes away.
