Mission San Miguel is one of my favorite places to visit. About 5 years ago it suffered damage from an earthquake. It is still undergoing repairs after all this time do to lack of funding for the repair work. The bulk of the money for repairs comes from the Franciscan Order. Most of the mission is fenced off. Very sad looking. A year or so after the earthquake a bill was either proposed or passed by California providing some funding for repair to San Miguel and other missions that suffered earthquake damage as the missions are California historical sites. That effort got blocked by the ACLU and others on the grounds of separation of church and state.
During my recent trip to the mainland I visited five missions. This is a shot I took at San Miguel.
