IMCA Insights – February 2009 With so many rocks to see and things to do during the Tucson show and I am humbled by the fact we had such a nice turnout at the IMCA dinner this year. La Fuente Restaurant,
sporting new hot pink paint This is the second year
where I've driven down from my home 211 miles North to the Tucson Show.
When I lived in Michigan I took for granted that a short airplane ride
could have me in the midst of all of those rocks by noon. Carol Falls, Bob
Falls, Eduardo Jawerbaum, Doug Dawn, Maria Haas, We were honored to have Rik and Dolores Hill as our guests this year. As you can see, meteorites and asteroids were well represented at that corner of the table. Adam and Zann, Rik

of a ripped and oriented Sikhote-Alin When I
reflect back each year after the Tucson Show the first thing that comes
to mind is how much I laugh. Yes, the meteorites and rocks and minerals
and fossils are great but the real reason I go every year is because of
the incredible people I am honored to call “friends”. •
