I'll bet the view is good from up there....

Looking back on some of the photos I took this past weekend in Ft. Worth I noticed this interesting figure atop what I remember to be a Baptist church. Look carefully:


It appears to be a statue of a Spanish Conquistador. (You can click on the picture to enlarge it.) It doesn't look like the hoodmold was quite large enough, so they later built another shed roof to help protect him from the elements.

Wonder what the story is behind El Conquistador? Maybe he.....er.....He's probably.....no, I've got nothin'. Somebody dazzle me with your imagination.
