Pie:
Line 9-inch pie plate with half of pastry; fill with apples and sprinkle with lemon juice and raisins. Combine the cinnamon, nutmeg and white sugar in small bowl; sprinkle over the apples.
Blend the brown sugar, flour and butter in a small bowl until crumbs form. Mix in pecans; sprinkle over filling.
Cover pie with rest of pastry, crimp edge to seal.

Personal Notes:
One of our favorite summer hang-outs was Glorieta, New Mexico. Every summer Mom and Dad would take a group of BSU (Baptist Student Union) students to this camp. The Pink Adobe restaurant in Santa Fe was a favorite place to eat. This is the recipe of their famous apple pie.
