Prepping to pull out

Forecast is looking terrible. Today, it is foggy out, but the bay is like cellophane. Tuesday, there's supposed to be a really large blow -- 55mph or so. Not the time to be at sea, so we'd very much like to be in Adak before then.

Today, Jerry and Max went up the hill to help Cyrus and John with the camp stuff. Meanwhile, I stayed with everyone else on the boat and cleaned out the storage hatch. Ed cleaned out the lab, as did Tina.

Eventually, the helicopter came with two loads of stuff from camp. I, with much help from Michelle, stuffed just about everything, excluding action packers and geophysical stuff into the hold below (starboard side). The stuff there includes two bikes, cement stuff, GPS units, john's weather port, batteries, and misc large boxes from camp. All the action packers are still topside, awaiting their final packing.

A couple scrabble games ensued, as did a screening of "You only live twice"; thus far, my least favorite bond movie.
