"A PICTURE" by Dr. Vance MacDonald
"A WORD" by Barbara Starkey
A WORD - DOOR
A door. Just a door but what words it could tell. It is a side door on the north side of the Mission.
The door leads into the Chapel. If you are walking to the kitchen from the front of the property you will see it on your left.
The entrance has the old olive trees on the left and an old, old redwood on the right.
The Franciscans introduced many plants and olive trees to the Mission. The Indian women pressed grapes for wine and olives for oil. Some of the men crafted furniture out of the oak trees.
The photographer, Vance MacDonald made a beautiful shot of this door. It is intriguing as is the foliage around it. Look for it when you visit San Antonio Mission.
