In this episode, I speak with Hanneke Cassel who is returning to Peaks Island for the Long Winter's Night Concert Series with Keith Murphy. Hanneke talks about what you can expect to hear at the concert, how she got into fiddle music, and how people looking to add playing an instrument into their lives can get started. With a career spanning over two decades, Hanneke Cassel has helped redefine what it means to be a modern fiddler. A driving force in the ever-changing landscape of acoustic music stylings, the Port Orford, Oregon native has established herself as a prolific composer, producer and fixture of the international music community...Described by the Boston Globe as “exuberant and rhythmic, somehow wild and innocent, [music] delivered with captivating melodic clarity and an irresistible playfulness,” it is Hanneke's hugely generous presence and personality that round out her magnetism as a performer beyond the strings of her fiddle.

If you can't fuel your cycling, you can't ride very far. At least that's what grandma always told me (editors note: she did not). So, waking up in camp without much appetite doesn't really bode well for making very many miles. But what if the solution were to just get on the bike and go? And would my reward be a night at my least favorite state park campsite?

Join us as we chat with Christian Fick about his time exploring southwestern Oregon. The Wild Rivers Discovery Trail is a 225 mile overland route in southern Oregon was developed by Overland Trail Guides. While most Oregonians head inland in search of views, this section of western Oregon features those vistas seldom seen in this part of the state. The region of southwestern Oregon got its name due to the numerous Wild and Scenic Rivers along this stretch of coastline. This section of coast is part of the Klamath-Siskyou ecoregion, that's home to the largest concentration of Wild and Scenic rivers in the lower 48. Prior to the establishment of commercial fishing, the salmon and steelhead runs along this section of coast were said to rival those in Alaska. The Flat Tops Adventure TrailThe 225 mile long Wild Rivers Discovery Trail travels from the Oregon-California border, hugging the coastal mountain ranges as it heads northward to its terminus in Port Orford. The track crosses through the watersheds of more than half a dozen rivers, with fantastic riverside and creekside camping opportunities. For those looking to extend the adventure, one can easily connect the Wild Rivers track with the Steelhead Adventure Route (Smith River NRA / Northern CA) and the Siskiyou Crest Adventure Trail, that sits on the eastern side of the Rogue River-Siskiyou NF.

Ten years ago, I embarked on one of my biggest adventures… cycling the entire Pacific Coast, from border to border. Since then, I've revisited sections of that ride time and again. And to be honest, I have some habits… tried and true places to camp and eat and even throw back a few. So to celebrate ten years of the pod, the Oregon Coast makes a lot of sense. But celebrating the past sometimes means looking forward, so maybe we shake it up…. remix the ride. On this episode, a preview of the tenth anniversary ride, the Oregon Coast Remix. Oregon Coast Remix Preview The ride Lincoln City - Crescent City A couple of fast forwards (PDX-LC, Port Orford-Brookings) Reasonable mileage The remix - new to me campsites each night (except the last one - more in a moment) Pros - even though this a familiar ride, the tick tock of it isn't so it's going to be totally different. New challenges, new rhythms. Ability to spend time in the coastal towns differently. No Sunset Bay! Cons - I'll miss out on some classic things like South Beach SP. Would have liked more time. Not in proper bike shape for the ride? Unknowns - there are h/b campgrounds, but are they any good? Ride to Union Station, Portland Bus to Tillamook Ride to Pacific City? Bus to Lincoln City Ride hits so many new h/b campgrounds Final night… wanted to do Cape Blanco, but in retrospect it's just too much to get up there (steep and narrow road). Luckily, Humbug Mountain is close enough to Port Orford to bike back to grab the bus. Only campsite I'll stay at that's not new to me (barring disaster/change in plans) Fast forward Port Orford to Brookings and then another bus to Crescent City airport for my car (puke avoidance tour 2024) The gear The Safari - same bike (well same frame and a few of the OG components) as the one that road the coast in 2014 Back from the shop and hopefully riding perfectly Fully loaded, even bringing a stove Flying with the Dogsbody bag (which has definitely paid for itself at this point) Two rear panniers Fork bags, but using the eVent bags instead of those skinny bags that came with them Will be the closest to a "4 pannier" setup I've ever done Handlebar roll (new bag) Lots of capacity, but will try to keep amount of gear and clothing to a minimum. May look heavier than it is? The challenges Not in the best shape My usual stops won't make sense so I'll be improvising a bit The upsides Brand new campgrounds - new sights to see and new perspectives of the coast Different rhythm to the ride makes it closer to new I'm in this for fun, not breaking speed records… hoping to stop at a few cool places I usually pass by Might have some surprises. It's the ten year anniversary adventure, after all! Tour Journals start… next week!

Sudden oak death, a tree disease caused by a fungal-like pathogen, can lead to bleeding cankers, leaf blight and rapid dieoff in a number of plant and tree species. The disease was first detected in northern California in the mid-1990s, and has been slowly spreading in Southern Oregon since 2001. Newly infected trees were recently found in Humbug Mountain State Park near Port Orford, leading to renewed treatment efforts by state agencies. Gabriela Ritokova is a forest pathologist with the Oregon Department of Forestry. She joins us with more details about the disease and efforts to contain it.

In Oregon ist Abenteuer mehr als Wildnis! Komm mit auf den Coastal Adventure Trail und folge dem preisgekrönten Podcaster Dirk Rohrbach im zweiten Teil unseres Roadtrips von Florence nach Port Orford und noch weiter entlang der Südküste. In dieser Episode nehmen wir den Coastal Adventure Trail. Wir starten in der Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area und bekommen in Florence Sandboarding-Unterricht von Weltmeister Gabe Cruz. Dann geht es an der Küste nach Süden, wir stoppen im verschlafenen Küstenstädtchen Port Orford mit seinen wilden Stränden, windumtosten Landzungen und erleben eine der großartigsten Tierbegegnungen der Welt. Anschließend erkunden wir die versteckten Buchten des Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor - vielleicht der spektakulärste Straßenabschnitt im gesamten Pazifischen Nordwesten - und enden in einem Wald voller Giganten, in einer Welt wie aus einem Fantasy-Roman. Und bei all dem entdecken wir, warum die Oregonians das Abenteuer so lieben. Es geht um eine tiefe Verbindung zur Natur und dadurch vielleicht auch mit sich selbst.

Oregon voters narrowly passed Ballot Measure 114 which, among many other provisions, would require a background check and permit before people are sold firearms. But that measure is now tied up in a court challenge with no clear timetable for implementation. Meanwhile, Democratic lawmakers in the Oregon legislature have advanced a gun safety bill that would make a few different legal changes. HB 2005 passed the House and is scheduled to be heard by the Senate. Republican senators have been deliberately absent from the chamber in recent weeks, slowing the progress of considering this and other legislation. We invited senators from both major parties to join us to discuss the gun safety proposal. We hear from Democratic Sen. Floyd Prozanski from South Lane and North Douglas counties, and Republican Sen. David Brock Smith from Port Orford.

This week, listen to an episode from Armchair Productions' newest series, The Hidden Trails of Oregon! Join us on the Coastal Adventure Trail for a documentary road trip, following award-winning travel writer Aaron Millar from Florence to Port Orford and beyond. We begin at the Oregon Dunes National Recreation Area, in Florence, for a sand-boarding lesson from world champion rider Gabe Cruz. Then, we head south down the coast, stopping at the sleepy seaside town of Port Orford for wild beaches, windswept headlands, ocean swells and one of the greatest wildlife experiences on Earth. Continuing along the coast, we explore the secret coves of the Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor – perhaps the most spectacular stretch of road in the entire Pacific Northwest – and finish in a forest of giants, fit for a fantasy book. Through it all, we're going to discover why adventure is about more than laughs and gasps - it's about fostering a deep connection to the natural world, and in doing so, perhaps, a deeper connection to yourself too.Want to visit Oregon and explore the Coastal Adventure Trail yourself?

Happy 2023! I use a lot of photo software for my photography - Lightroom, Photoshop, ON1 Effects, ON1 Resize, Topaz Sharpen AI, Luminar Neo, Radiant Photo… I admit it, I like software tools. I don't use every tool every day, some are more specialized or niche than others. My core processing tools are Lightroom and ON1 Effects. These are my bread and butter. These days, subscriptions are common place. Like it or not - subscriptions are here to stay. Adobe was the first to make the pivot to the subscription model, leaving perpetual licenses in the rear view mirror. Other vendors have waded into the subscription waters, and I think it's a matter of time before perpetual licenses become the exception and not the rule. I have been a subscriber to Adobe's Photography Plan for several years now. I got curious if the Adobe subscription has been worth the money for me and my photography. I took a look at the features Adobe has delivered since November 2019 and asked a simple question about each feature - would I pay to upgrade for that feature? Listen to the episode for my thoughts and my more complete analysis is below. For me, the subscription pencils out and I'm getting value for my yearly outlay to Adobe.2023 Photo WorkshopsIt is the start of a new year and a great time to think about where you want to take your photography in 2023. I wholeheartedly endorse attending a photo workshop - not a photo tour, a photo workshop - to improve your photography and spark your creativity. This was one of the very first topics I talked about, way back in Episode #3 of the Stop Down Photography Podcast. If you are new to the podcast, you may have missed this episode. Have a listen.I am hosting workshops in 2023. All of the workshops for 2023 are listed on my workshops page. Some workshops are sold out. There is space open in my two Oregon workshops in November of 2023.The Oregon Coastal Adventure, Nov 7-10, 2023: Headquartered in the heart of old town Florence, Oregon on the Siuslaw River, this workshop concentrates on the central Oregon coastline. Locations include Heceta Head, Heceta Beach, Yachats, and the breathtaking Cape Perpetua. We'll also venture inland to Sweet Creek for an excellent forested hike along a picturesque creek.Bandon Beach & Beyond, Nov 13-16, 2023: Based in Bandon, Oregon with its amazing sea stacks, this workshop explores Bandon and the southern coastline of Oregon. Locations include Shore Acres in Coos Bay, Port Orford, Lone Ranch Beach, Sisters Rock, and the endless pockets of rugged coast between Bandon and Brookings at the southern border of Oregon.Whether you join me on a workshop or sign up with another photographer, make 2023 the year you immerse yourself in several days of photography. You'll be glad you did.My Lightroom Subscription AnalysisThe context for my examination of my Lightroom subscription has two primary constraints: I care about Lightroom Classic, the desktop-centric applicationI am the type of person that historically upgrades my software every yearSo, how did I judge the Adobe Lightroom releases? I reviewed the Adobe Lightroom release notes for the versions released from November 2019 through October 2022 and looked at each feature in each release. The question I ask about each feature is simple: If Lightroom were a traditional, perpetual license, would I pay to upgrade to have that feature?The summary of my analysis is yes, for me, the Adobe Lightroom/Photoshop subscription is worth the money. The features that Adobe has put into Lightroom have been compelling enough to Adobe released four major versions of Lightroom in the last three yearsVersions 9.x, 10.x, 11.x, and most recently 12.0I would have paid for three of themThe 9.x, 11.x, and 12.x releases have features that are compelling to me and I'd pay to get themAssuming a perpetual license for a Lightroom upgrade would be in the $100-$120 range:3 paid upgrades would be about $300-$360My subscription plan costs $120/year, or $360If it were Lightroom alone, the subscription (probably) costs a bit more than yearly paid upgrades. However, the subscription also provides a license for Photoshop which I also use, has also gotten feature updates, and back in the day costs hundreds of dollars for a single license.Rate & ReviewIf you enjoyed this episode, please rate and review it on Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, or Podchaser.com.

“You really can't help but feel it when you put in a little effort to get a little higher, to get to another vantage point. It makes you feel a sense of being placed in this time and space in a different way. That's the sublime, a timeless element that is beyond what we can conceive. It's so important for the soul of humankind in the future of this landscape, and the future of humanity.” – Nathan Dwyer, Main Street Tours (from the top of Crater Lake National Park) Join us on the Central Nature Trail for the third part of our documentary road trip, following award-winning travel writer Aaron Millar from the top of Crater Lake National Park to the Columbia River Gorge. We begin snowshoeing to the top of Watchman Peak, for the best view over Crater Lake in the park – “like a sapphire embedded in the Earth”, as Aaron describes it. It's exposed, it's hair-raising and it's worth every shaky step. After that we head to Bend, one of Oregon's premier adventure towns, for some sunset paddling along the Deschutes River surrounded by thousands of swallows, baby Ospreys and a surprise visit from Oregon's state animal. Then it's time to head underground for a spine-chilling 1000-foot descent into a lava tube, formed by a “River of Fire” over 7,000 years ago. We crawl through 18-inch-wide cracks, turn off our head lamps to experience true darkness and marvel at the geologic forces that could create this uniquely beautiful landscape. We finish at the Confederated Tribes of Warm Springs Reservation for some “river therapy” and a fly-fishing lesson from a native guide. We learn of conserving native first foods, experience some river therapy and Aaron catches his first fish.Through it all, we're going to explore the wonder and awe of the natural world in all its forms, from mile-high views to quiet moments listening to birdsong on the river. We'll discover why the natural world for Oregonians inspires more than just gasps and awe, it inspires care and stewardship of the land. It inspires the sublime and we're going to find plenty of that.

This is part three of our series celebrating 10 years of Oregon's Marine Reserve Program. For those who aren't familiar, a Marine Reserve is an area within coastal waters dedicated to scientific research and conservation.Think of it as a combination of an underwater State Park, a wildlife preserve, and a living laboratory! Here in Oregon, we have five designated Marine reserves. From North to South, they are located offshore of Cape Falcon, Cascade Head, Otter Rock, Cape Perpetua, and way down South near Port Orford, Redfish Rocks. In part one, we got a great high level overview of Oregon's Marine Reserve System with former Marine Reserve Program Leader, Cristin Don. In part two, we heard from Nadia Gardner with Cape Falcon on the North Coast, and Duncan Berry with Cascade Head near Lincoln City.You can find those episodes, along with all of our shows, at coast range dot ORG. We're also on all the podcast apps at Coast Range Radio, and we'd be grateful if you would subscribe to the show, and leave a rating and review.

If it's true, the 11-ton space rock is still out there — and worth over $300 million. But the guy who says he found it was in financial trouble, and many geologists today suspect he made the whole thing up.

A prolific composer, Hanneke writes music from personal experiences of love and loss as well as to commemorate the joys and sorrows in the lives of loved ones. Hanneke's latest release, Trip to Walden Pond, features traditional Scottish and Cape Breton tunes and seventeen new pieces composed in the Scottish idiom. While her lively style is very much evident, this new album carries a deep, soulful sound with songs of celebration and farewell. Produced by Finnish musician Antti Järvelä (FRIGG, JPP, Baltic Crossing), the album showcases long-time musical collaborators cellist Mike Block, guitarists Keith Murphy and Christopher Lewis, fiddler/violist Jeremy Kittel, and pianist Dave Wiesler. Antti Järvelä contributes guitar and piano to a couple of tracks and piper Samppa Saarinen is featured on the uilleann pipes. Trip to Walden Pond, similar to Hanneke's five previous albums, offers mellifluous arrangements of traditional fiddle music and original tunes that evoke humor and heart. This latest album also includes several compositions penned by Hanneke as commissions to benefit Many Hopes, a children's education nonprofit based in Kenya that she avidly supports. A native of Port Orford, Oregon, Hanneke started out as a Texas-style fiddler and went on to win the 1997 U.S. National Scottish Fiddle Championship, which awarded her the opportunity to study with Alasdair Fraser and introduced her to fiddle camps and the folk community -- both of which continue to play an integral role in her life. Hanneke teaches regularly at Fraser's Valley of the Moon and Sierra Fiddle Camps, the Mike Block String Camp (run by her husband, acclaimed cellist Mike Block), Harald Haugaard's International Fiddle School, and the Boston Harbor Scottish Fiddle School. She has served as a guest instructor in the American Roots department at Berklee College of Music, where she received her Bachelor's of Music in Violin Performance. Hanneke is a sought-after performer who has graced stages across North America, Europe, Australia and Asia. She has been featured at Celtic Connections (Glasgow, Scotland), KVMR Celtic Fest (Grass Valley, USA), Milwaukee Irish Fest (Milwaukee, USA), Celtic Colours (Cape Breton, Canada), WGBH Christmas Celtic Sojourn (Boston, USA) and the National Celtic Festival (Port Arlington, Australia). The Hanneke Cassel Band features Mike Block on cello and alternating guitarists Keith Murphy and Christopher Lewis.

Captains are supposed to be the last to leave their sinking ships, not the first. But that required act of valor has always been easier said than done — as evidenced by the story of the 1903 wreck of the S.S. South Portland off Cape Blanco. (Offshore near Port Orford, Curry County; 1903) (For text and pictures, see http://www.offbeatoregon.com/1203a-steamer-captain-named-poultroon-of-the-sea.html)
The conditions were too rough even for the legendary Coast Guard 36-foot motor lifeboat to make it through the breakers, so a fisherman brought them ashore two by two in his rowboat. (Port Orford, Curry County; 1941) (For text and pictures, see http://offbeatoregon.com/o1112d-dory-fisherman-rescues-shipwrecked-sailors.html)
Is it possible that the city of Quivira was, at one time, real? Did it stand there, on the edge of a little bay just north of Cape Blanco, thriving around the time Rome fell? And did something then happen — perhaps the 300-year Cascadia Subduction Zone earthquake and tsunami — to close off the mouth of its bay and crush its walls into heaps of rubble and cover them with soil, leaving only a handful of odd-looking mounds and a string of legends to mark what once had been? Legends, perhaps, of a golden city trimmed with turquoise, passed back and forth among its survivors’ descendants until the chance came to use them to lead a gang of rapacious steel-clad Spanish thugs astray? This is all pure speculation, of course — more, it’s romantic tale-spinning of the kind one usually finds in pulp-fiction magazine stories about Atlantis and Lemuria. But there is a wisp of supporting evidence for such a theory (PORT ORFORD, CURRY COUNTY, 1540) (For text and pictures, see http://offbeatoregon.com/1802d.legendary-city-of-quivira-on-oregon-coast-484.html)

Cedar Caredio is a talented sculptor who works in wood and stone. As his neighbor, JoJo can tell you that his yard is full of large scale works of art. Cedar begins with image drawings until he “hits upon it.” Then he searches for the right piece of wood to fit the figure. He chisels away the wood to reveal the shape inside. Often the grain of the particular wood modifies his original concept. He prefers working with different types of Northwest cedar Woods, particularly western red, yellow, and white ‘Port Orford’. Inlays of carved marble, stones, shells, or gems complete many of the pieces. Working in stone has been a relatively recent endeavor. Limestone, marble, slate and alabaster are the main types of stone he uses. Both his Celtic heritage and his life in the Northwest guide Cedar to interpretations of myths with stylized creatures or designs. Influences include Northwest coastal Native Americans (totem images), Western European mysteries (like fairies), and Scottish wood and stone carving. Tying together these elements with dreams and spirituality has led him to his own unique style. He focuses on defining lines rather than minute details. He also plays the bagpipes! You can find more about Cedar and his art at his studio (http://eugenesculpturegroup.com/cedar-caredio/) .

The Port of Port Orford has long been a key economic driver in the southern Oregon coastal town, but the decrepit wooden building that houses key infrastructure won't last much longer. In the final part of our series on Port Orford, Jefferson Public Radio's Liam Moriarty reports on an ambitious replacement project, which would take the port in new directions.
In Part Three of our series on this southern Oregon coastal town, we explore the effort to boost tourism. Many think tourism can revitalize this traditional fishing town, but many are worried about killing the town's unique character. Jefferson Public Radio's Liam Moriarty reports.
Port Orford is much like other small towns in Western Oregon. It relied heavily on timber production to prop up the local economy. With those jobs gone, Port Orford is increasingly looking to the Pacific Ocean. In Part Two of our series, Jefferson Public Radio's Liam Moriarty reports on how ocean science could provide the town with a financial lifeline.

Marc Myrsell is a land surveyor and public aquarist in SW Washington and has apparently found his specialty in historical monster attack research. In SW Oregon over the course of 30 years, miners and hunters had numerous sightings and at times violent encounters with large, hair covered creatures in the hills, above Port Orford, resulting in the methodical killing of four men, whose murders are still unsolved. Marc will be analyzing the 1924 Ape Canyon, the Thompson Flat Monster Projects and the Butchertown Murders (1875-1905) to discuss historical document and field research techniques that are used for in-depth, detailed investigation of long standing episodes of the unexplained. Having spent his life researching and writing on unexplained historical events, he began in earnest with a fresh investigation of the 1924 Ape Canyon attack, culminating in the discovery of the actual cabin site in 2013, where the events took place. An incredible historical story with the latest details will be shared during this presentation, you will be glad you sat in on this one!

Thanks to all that have called in an become involved with the law abiding biker community! We get into the recent hot subject of Tiered Motorcycle Licensing. Tiered licensing is when a State decides that they will issue several different classes of motorcycle licenses to a rider. The class of license you will receive is solely the amount off CC's your motor is when you take the skills test. For example, if you were to pass on a 250cc you would not be able to ride anything bigger unless you came in on a bigger cc motorcycle and passed the skills test. There is usually an "unlimited class" for say example, anything over 750 cc. This has been implemented differently in different states over time. The fact of the matter is that many states have abandoned the old tired licensing program, because over time there was no hard evidence or statistics that this program somehow reduced motorcycle collisions. We disagree with tiered motorcycle licensing all together and with good reason. You will have to listen in to find out the facts of the matter. The issue recently heated back up when the State of Illinois decided they may implement it based on recent statistics that their motorcycle fatality collisions are on the rise. I live in Washington State and many years ago we had tiered licensing, but eventually got rid of it. There is no hard evidence New Affiliate We have a new affiliate with B&H Photo Video.

Found LAB on you tube and learned a lot from watching the maintenance video ... recently picked up my first Harley, 2010 wide glide, and will be bonding with it via wrench time in addition to riding :-) Made a small donation to LAB...pic is from last wknds trip through SW Oregon...this at Port Orford... .thanks again - much respect! My Response: Thanks for the feedback and for sharing that photo bro (beautiful). Sitting in the studio working hard (12-14 hour days right now aside from my regular LEO job). Well worth it when community members make contact & take me away for a moment. THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE DONATION. It really does help me in keeping this content creation going for the Law Abiding Biker community. I promise it will be put to good use. I have been shooting videos like crazy in the 108 degree garage over the last 2 weeks. There are a bunch of free videos that will be coming out. Just takes time to edit and all the other stuff that goes with producing vids etc....... Tom Henderson of White River Junction, Vermont You seem to explain things real well, I have a 2014 limited with the Hd street cannons , stage 1 download and Ventilator Air. I get a lot of decal popping when down shifting in third and second gear about 1850 to 2300 in rpms, I have had the deal check for leaks and they could not find any, I also used copper silicone and still pops. I see you changed your pipes and was wondering if you had the same issue. The dealer says this is a normal condition , other tell me to buy a tuner and tune it out.. Also before the street cannon,s I had 4" Rhineharts and they did not decal pop, would you know why? And what are your thoughts.. Maybe the street cannons this is a common thing. You have the Vance and nine and I was thinking of swapping ton them. MY Response: My 2011 Harley Davidson with Vance and Hines True Duals popped. My 2005 Harley with Vance and Hines Big Radius popped a lot. My 2014 with Vance and Hines Twin Slash Rounds does not pop. It certainly depends on the baffles you have and whether or not it is a 2 into 1 into 2 system like my Twin Slash Rounds are. ________________________________________________________________ CHECK US OUT AND SUBSCRIBE: Website: http://www.LawAbidingBiker.com Email & Voicemail: http://www.LawAbidingBiker.com/Contact Phone Hotline: 509-731-3548 Twitter: https://twitter.com/LawAbidingBiker Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/lawabidingbiker YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/scrappy587 Google Plus Page: https://plus.google.com/+Lawabidingbiker587 Instagram: http://instagram.com/lawabidingbiker RSS: feed://www.LawAbidingBiker.com/feed iTunes Direct Link to Podcast: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/law-abiding-biker-podcast/id622424087 Stitcher Radio: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/law-abiding-biker-podcast TuneIn Radio: http://tunein.com/radio/Law-Abiding-Biker-p562288/
Roy Clarke, an authority on meteorites, shows some of the specimens from the Allende meteorite fall. He came to the Smithsonian in 1957, after several years as an analytical geochemist in a U.S. Geological Survey laboratory. Clarke has been involved in the acquisition of numerous meteorites on behalf of the Smithsonian. His first major opportunity to go out into the field came in 1969, with the Allende meteorite fall in northern Mexico. Roy Clarke, now a Research Chemist Emeritus in the Division of Meteorites at the Museum, has become interested in the history of his field, and how it began, especially as it pertains to the Smithsonian’s collection. He has published several articles, including “Meteorites and the Smithsonian”; edited a volume about the Port Orford, Oregon, meteorite mystery; and is currently writing about the development of meteoritics at the Smithsonian with Dr. Howard Plotkin.
