This is a link to the first Waco Tribune story, with video of meteorite hunters in the field including Robert Ward , Michael Farmer, and Karl Moritz. Most all the forum members know or know of those professonal meteorite hunters. Shauna Russell, Robert's close friend, is fast becomming a class act when it comes to hunting meteorites.

This link will give you a News 8 in Austin, Texas story and nice long video consisting of an interview with amateur astronomer, meteorite hunter/collector, Doug Dawn. This is a different video than the one in my first post. The video in my first post was a follow up to this one..... Very good informative video.

Enjoy the pictures, video's and storys. If you were unable to make the Texas trip like myself, every scrap of information is appreciated. A special thanks to all those that were in the field and shared their experience. :wubu:
