Miller about 12 miles, Melvern Lake, about 22 miles, Elm Creek about 24 miles and Dwight about 35 miles... About a year ago I generated a KMZ file for Google Earth of the non-Antarictic finds in the Meteoric Society's database. It can be found here: http://www.fullmoonphotography.net/images/Meteorites/METSOC_20090601_non-Antarctic.kmz I should update it, but if you have Google Earth installed on your computer you may find it useful. -- Richard Kowalski Full Moon Photography IMCA #1081 --- On Wed, 6/9/10, Henry Mendoza <hxmendoza at yahoo.com> wrote: > Hello all, > > A friend of mine is going to his hometown in Kansas at the > end of July.
