[meteorite-list] [AD] Major Update, Expedition Photos, Goodies

[Notkin]

Dear Listees:

Saturday morning greetings from Tucson. We're in the middle of our 
"Monsoon" season here, and that means thunderstorms every afternoon. 
Very exciting, and also very different from when you all come out to 
visit us in February.

I'd like to share some site updates and additions with you.

I've been working on a new meteorite-hunting photo project for some 
weeks. I have collected my best/favorite expedition photographs from 
1994 to the present and compiled them into an extensive gallery, 
complete with location and camera notes. Many of these photos were 
taken on film, rather than digital, so they had to be sorted, scanned 
and prepared for the web. It took a while  : )

The first half of the Expedition Scrapbook is complete and it includes 
Imilac, Vaca Muerta, Popigai Crater (Siberia), Brenham (pt. 1), Meteor 
Crater, Alamo Breccia and others:

The second gallery will include Park Forest adventure, Brenham (pt. 2), 
Glorieta Mountain, Franconia, Mohave lake beds and others. I'll post 
again when that's complete.


I've also added a "News and Adventures" page which has info about the 
Travel Channel documentary, ABC News appearance, etc.:

Finally, I have lots of new goodies in the sale catalogue. Of 
particular note:

- Some large, complete SAU 001 individuals. These have rich black 
fusion crust, and are nothing like the rusty, pitted ones I've often 
seen at shows. These are the nicest SAUs I've come across:

- Great new Campo del Cielos with EXCELLENT character (groovy shapes, 
thumbprints, spikes, hooks, scoops -- you name it), Sikhote-Alin 
shrapnel with original patina, AA quality Sikhote-Alin individuals and 
more, here:

All domestic orders placed by midnight PST on Sunday receive free 
shipping (free shipping on smaller orders overseas too).

If you're not shopping, I hope you enjoy the photos.

Thanks for looking.
