Stopped briefly at Mission Santa Barbara on the way home. The photos show the old fountain in front of the mission and the mountain lion-headed spout on the lavanderia, or laundry, also in front of the mission. The mission proper is in the background of both shots. Around the lavanderia were planted a number of varieties of old grapes of the sorts the mission indians used to make sacramental wines--the start of Santa Barbara's wine industry.
