Robert Woolard's Correo displays sharp flow lines and lipping!

In the .............., there was Correo. I wonder if this was the only Sonoran Desert toad that didn't hop away from the knot. Thank you RH.

Very nice stone, Robert. It was that stone, pictured in your catalog, that prompted me to go there to search. I*ll never forget the thrill of finding a 326 gram complete stone just a few hours into my searching, as it was also MY first stone find. I called you immediately afterwards to share the news, and you were your usual super-enthusiastic self, congratulating me on the find. I guess I never got around to actually congratulating you on yours, so please allow me to do that now. Two Robert*s *. two Correo meteorites* two first stone finds.

Very nice find! I am envious! I went there with Jim Kriegh, Richard Norton and one of his his good friends to hunt in 1996. We were unsuccessful but I did enjoy seeing Richard give to Linda who lived near the field a copy of his book Rocks From Space. I have photos of him doing that.

The one stone that kick started things for you and probably ended up responsible for many other collections worldwide....very nice indeed.

This one is to blame for later developments? ;-)
