Excellent Mike !!!

btw the monastery was brought over from Spain in boxes and was due for the West Coast. When it came into NY there was a health problem and all the boxes were unpacked then they lost track of the contests of each. The project was abandoned and that is how it came to Miami. It was put together from photographs. PBS had a special on it !!!

I know it's amazing. they still have some stones they couldn't figure where they went. W.R. Hearst bought it. It was built in the 1300's.....

way cool
