I found a Sam stone outside the Marblemount Ranger Station and decided
to take it on a backcountry patrol with me. It is now located at the

Copper Ridge Lookout in the North Cascades National Park

Hi John,
Lars and me were in Oberstaufen , that is small town in the Allgäu famous for the beautiful landscape, cheese and obviously cows.
In fact we heard cowbells even it the night.
It is a very peaceful place. We saw paragliders, hikers, bikers and a lot of cows and horses as well.
So I decided to put one of Sams Stones there near the Alpe More – a small hat with a lovely view, great food and drinks.
They played an old song there when i put the stone there.
‘Where do you go to my lovely’ from Peter Sarstedt together with the cowbells in the distance i thought it might be a good place to rest.
Recorded at night in Oberstaufen.
You even can hear the crickets 😊

Here some impressions.
On the top right you see a little tree in a pot, and on the top left you see where i put it
:))
Have a wonderful weekend.
Nina

My son Tom bought Sam stones from you so we could help spread your
story throughout the UK. We live in Preston Lancashire North West
England . Tom has already placed a Sam stone on Blackpool beach . On
Saturday 5th August 17 I went to visit friends near Brighton and
placed one of Sam stones on Brighton beach . Brighton is a very
popular resort in East Sussex Uk which is visited by many people from
all points of the globe so I hope this will be found by someone who
will help continue with this journey.

My friend, Jimmy Vaughn, gave me a Sam stone and I took it with me to
my favorite place on earth: Vivekananda Rock on Wellesley Island. The
picture attached is a tree, which was the site of a powerful
meditation for Swami Vivekananda.”It said that on his last day August
7, 1895 at the Thousand Islands the Swami went into the back woods to
meditate and froze solid in meditation and remained oblivious to
torrential rain and is said to have achieved nirvikalpa Samadhi. (Page
104)
“He wrote from there to a friend:
“I am free, my bonds are cut, what do I care whether this body goes
or does not go? I have a truth to teach—I am a child of God. And He
that gave me truth will send me fellow workers from the earth’s
bravest and best.†Page 105-106

Thank you for letting me be a part of your son’s and your family’s
journey.
