Thank you Anne! And for sure we cannot forget Brix. One must experience
riding next to him and seeing his excitement first hand as we are nearing a
hunting site. He cries with anticipation. As soon as we got out of the
truck the day of my find, he began to dig feverishly. We thought maybe he
was on to something and then he suddenly stopped, looked up with dirt on his
nose, cocked his head with those sad doggy eyes as if to say, sorry, nothing
here......and walked away. He is one amazing dog.
Well, I would like to send my sincere congratulations to Dr. Laurence
Garvie! That is very exciting news. Hmmmm, "smallish stone" only
305g......I guess mine is a mere pebble then!!! I'm happy to see the
meteorite bug can strike in any sector of this wonderful hobby......I hope
you will share photos......congratulations again........
Arlene

Great find Arlene!
You had 2 great guides (lets not forget Brix!) but you are still the one
who found the newest Nevada meteorite.
And,
I have the newest Arizonian.
No, I was not in Arizona, and I really don't hunt, but this one was
actually found by Dr. Laurence Garvie from ASU. So yes, of course, it has
alredy
been classified, and it is an L6, and it will soon show up on the Met.
Database under the name of Chandler. Very nice crusted smallish stone,
only 305g.
Thank you Laurence.
And, Guys, if the scientists are now doing their own hunting, you have
some
very heavy competition!! ;-)

Well, thank you everyone for the kind words. I must say it was a thrill
to
finally find my first meteorite. However, it would never have been
possible
without the guidance and expertise of one of the best meteorite hunters in
the field......a wonderful inspiration to me and a great friend as
well......so a big thank you to Sonny and to Brix for a most memorable
day......Arlene
