Moira collects curios so she wants to keep it - it'd have to be worth a lot if we were to sell it but it would be interesting to get an estimate of its value

I can see it now. The prize meteorite on prominent display surrounded by little miner figurines of The Seven Dwarves.

Wow! Glad he's alright. If it does turn out to be a meteorite, he'll have a great story to tell.

I had a similar thing happen to me. An object fell out of the sky and landed close to me while I had been adjusting the Carburetors on my Motorcycle. This happened in the Spring. Upon further examination, I observed the object in question was red and very rectangular in shape. I determined it was a brick and not a meteor and deduced that it had fallen not from the sky but rather came from a neighbor who lofted it over the fence. Apparently, It was to show his displeasure with me over my interruption of his TV viewing of a nature show, Dis-functional Squirrels and the Nuts who love them.

In all seriousness, your Meteor discovery is great. I'm glad Lawrence, your Family or anyone else wasn't hurt by the rock.
