Not So Deep Impact

This morning in Oklahoma, during the very wee hours, Ed witnessed a meteor falling from the sky. He was so excited you would have thought he saw, well, a meteor.

He said it was green, about the size of a bowling ball, with a flaming red tail. It landed in the middle of a field and I guess extinguised itself, or went out before it hit, who knows? The best part about it? He got on the CB and talked to the only other lone trucker on the road, who also saw it.

We will be driving back through there in a few days and now Ed wants to buy a metal detector to go check out the landing site to search for meteorites. If we find anything, you know I'll be take pictures.

It's not enough that we have to look out for drunk drivers, motorcylists, speeding four wheelers (that's you people in cars), tired truckers, inclement weather and wandering wildlife; now we have to make sure that a meteor doesn't hit the truck.

Greeaaaat.
