Actually, my home state rare ataxite Willow Grove was also ploughed up. =
It even has the plough marks across the surface. If I'm not mistaken, I =
think Richfield was also found the same way!

Start ploughing in the holidays folks,

P.S. Hey Sterling; maybe you could start ploughing the Dry Lakes! Double =
the chance then?!? ;-)

Picking Butter Beans


  Hi,

      Maybe the real moral is that, if we want to find meteorites, we =
should
  pick more butter beans.
      A lot of things turn up (literally) in a freshly plowed field: =
indian
  artifacts, glacial stones... One of Illinois' eight meteorites was =
found
  that way (WOODBINE).
      I read enviously of the dry lakes when all I have about me is =
plowed
  fields. It's nice to know you could find a meteorite in one.
