Lucy, I'm HO-ome.

3:30 PM 9/21/2005 - Wednesday
Bill has arrived, back from Adak. His precious cargo: 4-5 day old newspapers, a replacement GPS receiver, and --most importantly -- a replacement pump.

Within moments of his arrival, Jerry was down the hatch replacing the water pump while the rest of us were scavenging newspapers. Gloom. Doom. Sigh. I'm not entirely sure why I was eager to get my hands on the news. The only good thing I read was that the auroras have been fantastic. Not that I've been able to see any from here, especially with the cloud cover we've almost always got.

Today has been rainy and windy. Ed has gone up on the hill with Cy and John. They even brought Josh along to help.
