I've been on my now annual Australia trip, and this time I got to spend time with Norbert and Heike in Victoria - totally fantastic!!!!. Our first day together we attempted to find some Australite tektites. Norbert knew of a site, and we arranged to meet nearby to have a look. http://www.gigapan.org/gigapans/51938/ We wandered the area with the custodian of the site, and the three of us were standing in a line right next to each other.... Trevor bent down, reached over, and picked out a very nice flanged button. Norbert was 1 meter to the left, I was 1 meter to the right, so we both missed it by 1 meter and maybe 10 seconds :-( :-( in the gigapan image, it's the lower of the two whole tektites. Drat!!!! In the image, you'll see Norbert searching as well as Missy, three times! She was fast as I was taking the images!!! All in all I had a great time!!! Visited some meteorites in a museum (images to come) and took some perplexing pictures of signs nearby for my wife's research (to Norbert's amusement) Thanks again Norbert (and Heike) for a fantastic time. Mahalo - ted For a gigapan version of the Henbury craters site, pending me getting back there and doing it right: http://www.gigapan.org/gigapans/50117/ For my other gigapans - do a search on "zenpenguin" - more to come ______________________________________________ Visit the Archives at http://www.meteoritecentral.com/mailing-list-archives.html Meteorite-list mailing list Meteorite-list at meteoritecentral.com http://six.pairlist.net/mailman/listinfo/meteorite-list Received on Sun 27 Jun 2010 01:39:40 PM PDT |
