Did You Know
...Madonna of the Trail is a series of monuments dedicated to the spirit of the pioneer woman in the United States? Created by German immigrant August Leimbach, they were placed in 12 states from Maryland to California in 1928 and 1929.

[edit] I just posted another
another Madonna picture, this one from Springerville AZ, and I was looking at it thinking, I was there fairly late in the afternoon, having driven from Dixon NM that day, and if she is facing west the sun should be in her face, not on her back. So does that mean that all this talk about all of them except the one in Bethedsa facing west is not right? Food for thought.

In addition, i am taking donations for a digital camera, but that's another story for another day.
