Dear List Members,

Thought I would take a little break from playing email catch-up. Here are a 
couple of humorous photos from my Wisconsin meteorite hunt:

"Wisconsin Cheese?"
Cow #2995 from the fertile hunting grounds (reminded me of [NWA] 2995, the 
lunar meteorite).

"Got Meteorites?"
In this cow pasture, as Bob King mentioned on his blog, these cows were 
particularly interested in our wandering about in their turf.

"Curious Cows!"
Michael Cottingham photographing his first Wisconsin meteorite find with a 
couple of very curious cows. Just seconds after this image was taken, one of 
the cows licked his hand almost taking the meteorite!

Molly the 'Meteorite Finding Lama' of Wisconsin, or at least a group of us 
were hoping...

Horse pasture where I found my one 33.7g find.

It was a great pleasure to meet up with old and new friends in the pursuit 
of the newest of meteorites on planet Earth. I was able to meet people in 
person who I have only communicated with over the Internet or have never had 
the privilege to talk to. I have learned a lot from these dedicated 
individuals in the pursuit of these celestial messengers. After reading much 
of the emails posted to the List over the last week, I realize that 
unfortunately I did not run into quite a few people. I am very happy to have 
met, hunted and talked to everyone I encountered during this hunt, what a 
rush!

Looking at the horses munching on the grass reminds me that I need to go mow 
the lawn after nearly a month on the road hunting different locations.

"Thank You", once again to the friendly folks of Wisconsin and the dedicated 
meteorite people who contributed data to make the hunt a success!!!

Enjoy!
Greg
