Sorry for the duplicate.

For the curious about the subject of the photo:

In 1925, Fathers Seraphina and Ricarti of the Holy Family Church came to the Rancho and presented Doña Jesusita Bernal with a medallion blessed by the Pope and a statue of Santa Teresa brought from Rome. In 1928, to honor his deceased mother, Pedro Bernal built a shrine next to the spring and placed the medallion and statue inside. Although the statue and medallion have been missing for years, the shrine’s base and inscription are still visible.
