LOL I scratched my head when I seen that Maw. The date we became a state was July 24, 1896... now here's the rest of the story lol

"Utahns tried and tried—for almost 50 years—to win statehood. The Utah area became a part of the United States in 1848--but it took until 1896 for Utah to become a state."

January's gem is garnet which represents constancy

January was known as the wolf month to the Anglo-Saxons because in winter, wolves came into the villages to search for food. It is the coldest month in the northern half of the world, nature is quiet and the birds travel less. Also, the bears and woodchucks go into hibernation. However, in southern half of the world, January is the warmest month. During this time, unlike the northern half of the world, animals are active and plants are growing.
