| Discovery Notes | Soil was moist and was collected from 3 centimeters deep. It was found next to (about five feet away) an old storage building in the cemetery. Snow melted in the area the sample was taken, but the surrounding area had about a quarter inch of snow. Ground is slightly sloped and the area sample was taken from was closer to the top of the slope. There is minimal foot traffic because it is off of the paved walking path. There are several trees around, the closest being about ten feet away. There was a second house about 200 feet away and a garden area about 50 feet away. |
| Naming Notes | Named after my dog Marmie since my two other dogs' names, Samson and Primrose, were taken. |
