to being a little protestant minister's kid in deeply catholic Bavaria. I had forgotten about visions like this. Thank you for posting this rich image.

As a VERY lapsed Catholic I also like what I call "Mary in a bathtub" displays. You know the ones you often see in front of some Italian- American homes.

| 3. You don't see shrines like those around much anymore. |

I used to see some in Louisville, Ky. We had a large German population.
Can't get a decent butterkuchen here. Say Springerle at a local bakery and all you get is a blank stare.
