Hello list members,
I have listed a 2 gram piece of Willamette meteorite on Ebay. This is a piece of oxide that popped off of the mass during the thousands of years it sat here in good old Oregon rain. The Northwest is getting slammed with record rainfall lately. How about if the Heavens let's us have another fresh fallen Northwest meteorite. Oregon only has four so far; Willamette, Klamath Falls, Sam's Valley, all irons and our one stone: Salem. The Washougal has always been referred to as an Oregon fireball because it was witnessed by thousands of people as it came in over Oregon. But the only piece recovered was found in a garden in Washougal, Washington just across the mighty Columbia river which is the border between Oregon and Washington states. The Washougal was a wonderful howardite and sadly it has turned up missing. A national treasure of extreme research value somehow stolen from the
State museum. If I can get pictures of it I'll post them to the list so that people can keep an eye out for it.
Cheers, E.T.
