Pam,  We have some sandstone here too.  Not in the immediate area but up
north in Burlington area there is quite a bit of "redstone,"  it is very
red--don't ask me why.  There is so much of it UVM built one whole part of
their campus out of it.  Also some to the south of us at Greenfield, MA and
in Windsor, CT area.  We went to the Bradley airport Sat and all the
roadsand down there is red.

Our oldest son is in Albuquerque, NM as I write.  Hubby's sister and family
live out there so he wanted to go to see about work prospects.  Some
members of my family like to travel, just not me.  Ruth

Think of it this way.  NM is a good place to show what can happen to stone
after many years of erosion - especially if it's sandstone.

Young man,  I was all excited till I saw it was in NM, might as well be on
the moon.  Wish it were closer--like southern VT where we have lots of
stone walls.  Ruth
