Good Morning All!

how can we not fall in  love with rocks as these?

Was this an observed fall?
Is this one of  the bigger pieces found?
Just stunning! Thanks for sharing Anne!

With  best  regards,

Thanks Moni.
Yes, this little Julesburg is very pretty, very rounded and smooth. 
No, it is not a Fall. Like most meteorites in Colorado, it was ploughed up  
by a rancher in the eastern plains. Only a couple had been found before so  
this is the smallest, and the newest of the Julesburg bunch. 
 
Enjoy!
