White Sands, New Mexico

This is so beautiful! Thanks go out to Patty Palmer for her efforts in getting this to me so quickly after our talk in Relief Society about collecting dirt and how to use it in our daily lives.....(haha) !No, not really, but we did discuss my LOVE of collecting dirt in a lesson I gave in Relief Society some time ago. This is from White Sands , New Mexico. This sand sample was obtained, (Patty wanted me to point out) COMPLETELY legal.


Apparently, you are not aloud to remove the sand, but nothing has ever been mentioned in regards to the removal of said sand out of your shorts, socks, shoes, or anywhere else that may have accidentally gotten stuck. Thank you to Patty, who so bravely and boldly went where no other sister dared to go before! (Into the shorts to find some sand)



More info on White Sands, New Mexico, and the COOL place it really is can be found here.

Bill Richardson and New Mexico Dirt

I have grown so attentive to the details lately. This letter was actually the first one I received after sending out my requests to the governors of each state. Congratulations to Bill Richardson for being on the ball! This sample was one I really needed because I have very little if any soil from the state of New Mexico. You can visit his state on the web at http://www.newmexico.org/ or http://www.state.nm.us/. Thank you again for being the first to respond to my request. I noticed!
