I found this particular stone early on in our search of the farmland near Buzzard Coulee in April of 2009. It is a beautifully oriented stone and the one break in its perfection turns out to give the meteorite specimen serious personality. It is about as close as I can get to my "Venus" stone. But Darth it will remain.
