New Mexico, February - March 2006
	On Wednesday (3/15), five of us went out to see an old church called El Santuario de Chimayó.  It was about a 30-minute drive from the hotel.					Over 300,000 people a year visit this church.  It is said to be built on sacred ground.
	This is the inside of the church.  There were many intricate paintings.
						The dirt that the church is built on is said to have healing powers.  People travel from all over to be cured of their ailments.  A hole in the floor is used to gather the dirt.
	This wall contains many of the crutches that were left behind after someone had been cured.					On Friday (3/17), I headed home for Los Angeles.  My work in New Mexico was done and I was going home!
