By the way, check out the names of the roads. They continue in the same fashion as you move north and south. |

"Detail" implies the close up pictures, so the sequence is correct. I just added the picture numbers to clarify. |

Waconda was recognized in 1873-4 and brought to Charles Shepard's attention in Charleston SC by in early 1876 by George Chapman. Shepard (1876) wrote: ... (chipped fragments of large mass) specimens ... show a freshness equal to that of any newly fallen stone, although they came from its immediate surface, --a circumstance obviously pointing to the recentness of the fall ... stones exposed only a few weeks to the weather have suffered decided oxidation, whereas no such change seems to have occurred in this case. |
