Welcome!

After attending the ground breaking ceremony in October, 2010, Mary Ellen Ipiotis was inspired to create a BLOG about the massive desert rose sprouting forth on sacred grounds in Sandoval County.

C'mon in! Please make yourself at home. Join me with your commentary, questions, stories, photos, video's, any information you would like to share... about the new medical center, the land it is on, the people and places in the area, anything you think people would like to know.

Mary Ellen is listening and will be on the look out for you ~

There is something about Valentine's Day that evokes a great deal of emotion; it can be of course a very romantic, loving, kind and thoughtful day. It can prompt a sense of longing, isolation, regret even bitterness. It is a wonderful time of year when you have the pleasure of being on the receiving end of a valentine. It can also be a sad time for someone who would rather skip past the whole notion of it,  especially if any element of dissapointment would interfere with it's sweet, soft and simple nature.

It goes like that with any landmark day... ignore them, look upon some of them with dread or get into them... certain days on the calender mark particular times of our lives and help us to remember for better or for worse.
We hope for the better. ♥
