Today was the last day of World Con. For me it ended at noon. I ate at Rosarios and then drove the Mission Trail. Pictures are attached.
Mission San Jose is still in use as a church and is also part of the Nation Park system. There was an award winning film at the Visitors Center that highlighted the people of South Texas and their history..

The church is in the background and what was living quarters are where the arched opening are. All that is left of the living quarters are the walls. |
|
The church inside is not large. It is still in use today. |
|
A view from the front. According to the film when it was built it had very colorful decorations on the outside. None are left today. |
|
Although you cannot see the wall the entire area is walled like a fort and the local Indians lived in rooms built into the walls. |
