one story on Gauchito Gil, The past weekend was a national holiday in Argentina linked in fact, to this matter of topic, the Spanish conquest. When driving, I was astonished by a Dante like scenario, when I saw a Gauchito Gil shrine on fire. It was too late to put it off, since it was burning almost everything. …………an accident, an excess of offerings, candles, cigarettes, etc, a bit of wind and it got all it lighten up… Passion and need of guidance, and excessive worshiping had burnt down the source to it.
