Hello Everybody,

Hope everyone is doing well. Been pretty busy around here as usual. After
a little cold spell the sun is now shining much to the delight of my baby
Oak trees, and my banana tree that perhaps I put outside a little too early.
(It really isn't looking good after the last week.) Oh well, on to
meteorite things....

A couple weeks ago I helped Steve Arnold move the Brenham meteorite main
mass from the Exploration Place. It was sad to see Steve pull away in his
hummer, perhaps the last time the meteorite will be here. I took a couple
images and will try to find time to post them.

(Speaking of Steve and Brenham, that Cash for Treasures program with Steve
and Geoff is getting a LOT of air play.)

Last week we presented a slide show at the local Botanica on the solar
system and meteorites. It was lunch program, so people had to pay to see
the presentation, but we still had about 80 people in attendance. Photos
coming when I can find time.

The Kansas Meteorite Society will be on the radio this weekend, on a local
radio station, KNSS. This will be Saturday, April 14th from 10 a.m. to 11
a.m., during the Countryman's Kansas program, hosted by Gene Countryman. We
will be promoting the upcoming meteorite themed rock show.

You can read more radio show here....

And after the weekend, not sure when really, you will be able to download
the show to your ipod here...

Followed up all leads from the lawn show and no new meteorites.

Must more in the works, some things not finalized yet, some things I can't
really talk public about.

PS: I will remind everyone about the dates and times of our upcoming rock
show, as it seems like the thing to do. Please try to make it if in the
region, but avoid Friday, unless you want to be trampled by the ~1500 kids
or so that attend that day.
