Hello Everybody,

Just spent the last few days at Glorieta Mountain....and the somewhat loc=
al casinos. =20

Man are those little irons hard to find. The mountains in this region ar=
e a soft gravel sand like mixture that makes walking around them hard, be=
ing 3500 ft up doesnt help either. I had to stop and take a rest every t=
hirty minutes or so to keep from tiring out.

I went with a local collector, Jerry Calvert, and together we found two m=
eteorites, one each. Mine a tiny droplet and his a ~10g with a neat shap=
e.

Together we spent probley $500 on the trip and four days of time. Makes =
you respect Glorieta Mountain hunters a little more. =20

I have about 250 e-mails so please bear with me for a couple days.
