Packing the truck
We are loading (1200lb of drill equipments) the truck at VECO office.
VECO is an organization that supports NSF sponsored science projects.
Matt and Larry helped us prepare the snowmachines and other equipment.
Tomorrow we leave for Manley Hot Spring in a truck with two snowmachines
and a lot of drilling equipment.
Today's temperature was much warmer with temperature of -9F and light snow.
Excitement is growing, but we hear that the temperature is dropping in the
next few days.
