Sonny, I for sure is worth a look, the worst that could happen is that you find nothing and get tired of walking around hunting. The best is that you find a new meteorite and make a little money and get a great new stone or two for your collection, just keep us updated on the hunt results. I want to wish you the best luck hunting, hope to see some photos of your new finds, you can post them on the SkyRock Cafe for us all to drool over. Best, Joe Kerchner http://illinoismeteorites.com http://skyrockcafe.com
