Learning About Tumacacori

Hi All,

We have spent the last two days in the Visitor Center learning the procedures and reading our way through a large pile of historical information. We also went with two different docents as they gave tours of the mission and helped visitors appreciate the history of the region. This was a great aid to our absorbing the history.

Church was built 1820-1823

The history is fascinating and the staff and other volunteers are great. To paraphrase Annie, "we are gone like it here"

Love,
