Glad she's doing better, KW!
You're right about the separation of the mission from the presidio, of course... I was lumping them together for brevity, but I do recall reading at the historic site that the mission was located some ways downriver. Beautiful country along there, BTW... great motorcycle touring roads!
IIRC the Franciscans throughout Tejas tended to mistrust the soldados' "worldly ways", as you so tactfully put it!
