I can't speak for everyone, but I think a good time was had by all.
I wholeheartedly agree. It was great to get together with likeminded meteorite-folk, even if it WAS exactly 5 degrees Sunday night. The two Steves (Witt and Arnold2) brought lots of interesting stuff, and ended up consummating ;-) a trade worthy of the Yankees and Dodgers. I think it involved a beautifully-prepared Odessa slice, some Kilabo, a Huss-numbered Henbury, a CD, a Cape York slice, and some "meteorites to be named later." Paul Sipiera is a fascinating guy, he's the mover-and-shaker behind the Planetary Studies Foundation, centered (as were we) in Algonquin. Paul has some seven Antarctica trips under his belt, so the stories flew. A few more photos at the links below.
(Oh, and Rob Elliott was there, too. ;-)
