"The Basket Lady"

[Gus Cobos]

This is Maria Del Carmen from the City of Puebla, Mexico. Maria at the time was 92 years young, with heart and spirit of a young lady in her teens...This sweet lady weaves baskets for the local market, and also sells fresh hot tacos and corn...Maria has been working since she was 12 years old to help support her family, and does not plan to retire anytime soon...God Bless her...may she live 100 more...:):cool:

They have such weather beaten skin from all that sun. Still hard to believe that she is 92 though. Great character in her face.
