Congrats Todd.  Were  you using a metal detector or just visual?  Actually, 
that's pretty good  considering the amount of people that are/have pounded the 
field.  The  first finds are the best and most memorable.

Good luck in your future  endeavors,
Dave

Hello List,
I'm  just a little fish here on the meteorite food chain, but I do have a   
story.
Last month I spent the weekend at the Franconia Strewn Field and  found my  
first two meteorites - 4 gm and 51 gm. They were small but  what a rush!
I did have a chance to stop at the Tucson show ever so briefly  enroute to  
Sierra Vista. I had to have a look at Mike Farmer's lunar.  Very  impressive.
Hopefully next year I can spend much more time at the  show.
Adios.

Thanks Dave,
Actually I used Goldmaster II metal detector. These meteorites gave a very  
distinct signal. A friend with me was using a magnet cane with no luck. Believe 
 me when I say it was hard work and long hours finding these two Franconias. 
But  worth it!
