    Well, I couldn’t help myself! This cabin fever is getting to me, so I am planning to do a day trip out to Fredonia in a couple weeks to look for meteorites.
    You game?

    Franconia wash what I meant, not Fredonia. You’re very close to it aren’t you?

    Fredonia is an out of the way place. Kanab sure has grown and is super touristy now!
    Meteorites, huh?

    We were in Kanab for Thanksgiving and so Fredonia stuck in my mind. Man, real estate is expensive there! I thought ours was bad. It’s Franconia that has the old meteorite strewn field. I posted a map in this thread a ways back...https://www.tacomaworld.com/threads...ssions-and-finds.562597/page-67#post-22804836

    I can hear exactly what Jeff Williams would be telling you right now, and you know what he’d say, right? But no, I won’t say it... well... it’s just that you sure picked a pretty little place to camp, son! Wow!! ;)

    Yes, it is worth getting out for the scenery, if nothing else!
