Saint Roch, New Orleans, LA

We visited the cemetery on St. Roch Avenue this morning.  Not our first time, but I am so taken with the place that I brought my camera.  As you can see above, this is one of the many national shrines to saints located in New Orleans.  The chapel has a very interesting story which, unfortunately, I don't have the time to detail today.  Good things come to all who wait.

In the meantime, I will give you a little taste of what's to come this week.  Note the floor tile that reads, "Thanks to St. Roch for my eye."
