Official NM Trivia

Do you know the official flower of NM? How about another name for the state bird (beep, beep)? Do you know how they spell our state tree in Colorado (very odd)? What fish is honored as our state fish (it's not the alcoholic)? Which four legged creature is our official animal? What vegetables are offical veggies of NM, two of them? Is there an offical state gem? Other than cannabis, what's the state grass? On March 17, 1981 the state adopted the offical fossil (rock, not clothing) named? If the cookie monstor was from NM, what would he offically eat? If Nm has an offical insect, can you name that bug? Anyone care to guess at the offical state question?

Those questions are developed from an article in the Kit Carson Coop (and other NM coops) monthly newspaper, Enchantment. For those who aren't familiar with the term coop, that is the rural electric coop. It's a user owned electric supplier. They have been very instrumental in developiong the rural portions of the USA. They were one of the few good ideas of our federal government. Now what are we going to do with them?
