Our Lady of Serenipity

Sometimes Mary just shows up when Mary wants to show up. I was pulling up in front of my friend's apartment near Bellarmine University the other day, when what in my rearview mirror did appear? A Bathtub Mary, of course.



I love the creative use of the galvanized metal washtub, and the flowers that are just starting to bloom in front of her.

I thought I might also add that I have now been searching for and photographing Bathtub Marys for about a year now. I can just hear the NPR interviews and documentary offers coming now.
