The Missing Statue

Next time you go to La Tasca, you'll notice something missing behind the stage. Bill and I had often admired the statue behind Jimmy, Cindy and Roberto. It was very colorful, not only matching the colors of our house, but definitely representing the way we had decorated the front part...with lots of Aztec and Mayan artwork and figurines.

The last night of our group, Bill noticed the statue was for sale. Wow! We discussed it as we danced...and finally
decided we should ask Ana if she would negotiate for us...see she even takes care of us! Also, knowing Ana, we figured if anybody could get a good price,
it would be her. When she came back, she quoted a price, which was a tad pricey, but a bargain nonetheless, and then she said, "If you take it tonight, the price will be less!" We jumped at it, sealed the deal and brought him home.

We believe it to be a Mayan warrior in ceremonial dress, but if anyone out there knows differently, please post a comment and enlighten us. We think he's beautiful and, as you can see, proudly guards the gateway to our house.
