[meteorite-list] New meteorite discovery 2.4lbs / New photography page in the works

[wahlperry at aol.com]

Hi List,

I have uploaded a couple of pictures of a new meteorite find. The 
pieces were found over a 40' by 75' area. It looks like the meteorite 
possibly broke into hundreds of pieces upon hitting the desert surface. 
I am also guessing that the endless freeze and thaw cycles over the 
last hundred years helped with the fracturing process. The TKW of the 
new find 2.4 lbs. The meteorite appears to be an OC. Here is a link to 
the new find.

I have started a new photography page. I have had the opportunity to 
visit several unique locations during my travels and decided to capture 
them in photos. One of these locations was the Old Needles Theater. I 
contacted the caretaker and was able to get inside and take some 
pictures. As I was walking around the theater I heard footsteps and 
what sounded like people scurrying out of the building on the opposite 
end.

For those interested in Nevada history I have also included some 
pictures taken at an old ghost town/silver and copper mine. I will be 
adding more pictures from this sight at a later date.

This just goes to show that you can come across some amazing places 
when you head out to search for meteorites.
