Great sense of place on this! I feel as though I am there. L/F
Kathleen K Parker replied:
Thanks, Caitlyn. There is a big "to-do" with the Catholic Archdiocese about the closing of ST.Louis One to the public due to vandalism. The vandalism happens at night when it is closed. We have a petition out in nola for them to reconsider. Meanwhile I have to get back there before March and photograph ever single tomb! Sigh. C'est la vie! kk
