Mission church

They used to have teepees here

The city wall, shortly after this we saw the snake. Eric thought it was a rattlesnake...
turns out it was a bull snake. He saved me.

Ruins from Puebloans

Spanish Missionaries Ruins

The original church outline. Spanish priest converted some Puebloans but there was a
revolt in 1680 the Spainerds left and the church was destroyed.

12 years later, the Spainerds came back and built another church. This is what remains.

This is the equivalent of a living room of the rectory.
