This park was recommended by someone at the RV Park. Glad we took the drive. A pleasant surprise. I have been reminded many times how much the Catholic church tried to control the native Indians. Guess it goes back to my way is the way and might makes right.
Indians lived here centuries.

Who knew???



Hmmmmm what is that smell?
Where they grew some of the crops

Trash, hundreds of years of indian garbage.

Remains of the rooms where the indians were kept while learning to be catholics
