EL MARMOL - an unexpected treasure.
HOME IS WHERE YOU FIND IT.On the road to El Marmol. We planned on staying the night here as the moon sets. But then.. well, you'll have to read the story.
A SCHOOL OF ONYX: Lorilee through a window of the school house at El Marmol -- built around 1920. On our second visit here, we chanced upon an old woman who spent 6 years as a student at this school. What a story.
SOLID ONYX WALL: Beautifully laid up, this schoolhouse wall was made from solid onyx. I thought onyx was black, didn't you? These stones were off-quality onyx taken from the nearby mine.
