Visual Poetry: Pai Martins and Joe's Place on Pico

There are some images which are so lovely and so funny that they make you cry. 



My mother is holding a piece of wood, on which is written in pencil "Pai Martins, 1920"

It belongs to the house which can now be found on the web at:

It is her grandfather who has inscribed his name into a beam of the house.  The man, a priest, and father of two (my grandmother being one) was a delight.

More stories to come.
