San Fernando Mission

JD and I visited the San Fernando Mission this morning.  One of the reasons for this blog is the Valley often gets a bad rap - and yet it has all this wonderful stuff.  The Mission is no exception.   Despite my four decades of living in Los Angeles (with the exception of a couple years at UCSB) I've never been there before now - amazing since I love visiting places like this.  Three photos above the jump, and a slideshow below the jump.  Again, if you like this kind of thing check it out.

Bell of the El Camino Real.  (These bells are situated up and down the California coast and mark the location of the El Camino Real, the trail that linked the Spanish Missions together)
