The photo was taken of the bronze statute of Kateri Tekakwitha

outside the St. Francis Cathedral Basilica in Santa Fe, NM.

Kateri Tekakwitha, a Catholic American Indian who became known as the Lily of the Mohawks
 was named the first Native American saint by Pope Benedict XVI in a ceremony held in St. Peter's Square in October of 2012.

 Mandarin Orange Monday

Mandarin Orange Monday ~ #65 {autumn colors}

We have had a strange fall, not the glorious colors of a typical fall ...

rather bursts of color here and there.

We have also had a lot of early hard freezes,

which caused a lot of the leaves to just turn brown

While at the Capitol this past week, there were spots of color

which I took advantage of for Mandarin Orange Monday.

A week ago today I brought home two new companions from the Santa Fe Humane Society.

This is what I now see first thing every morning, and it fills my heart with joy!
