Emmalee and George
Emmalee got to bring George home for the weekend and show him everything about her. We took pictures and then put them in a photo album to take back to school for all the kids to see what they did for the weekend. They had lots of fun together.

Not George
The Pipila Monument
I named him George in my slide show and Charles did not agree. So here is the deal with George, I mean Juan Jose de los Reyes Martinez, 'El Pipila' is what they call him. In 1810 he was the hero of the struggle for Mexican Independence who, by setting fire to the city gates with a torch, made possible the taking of the Alhondiga de Granaditas on September 28, 1810. The statue what erected in 1939.
