May 24-26, 2018: Memorial Day workparty!

Post date: May 30, 2018 5:10:43 AM

A very busy trip in preparation for 481! New dome paddle hardware built and installed, Mt. Wallerstein's water valve replaced, new shed delivered and loaded, and much maintenance. 

Issues: Telescope is in good shape. Water valve looks good but lacks a handle, so it sits at the bottom of an 8' deep hole. Water pump has a small leak at end of each cycle.

Groceries: Have basic condiments & pantry supplies (although we do have flour, sugar, and baking powder!). Have only a couple gallons of drinking water. Additionally, need plastic knives and bowls.

Water: left w/ 18" left.
