<ynpvisitor92> Graham is doing a good job updating
05:11:05
<David A pdx> Good Morning all!
05:11:15
<Dave from B> Morning David
05:11:31
<David A pdx> beautiful morning in UGB!
05:12:17
<David A pdx> Sprinkler!! ie
05:29:14
<ynpvisitor47> Angles on according to Graham. Maybe we'll see F & M steam cloud shortly...
05:29:39
<David A pdx> Sprinkler slowly quieting down
05:33:11
<Dave from B> OF 0733ie
05:37:52
<David A pdx> Sprinkler should go soon...
05:38:30
<David A pdx> now that my neck is on the block...
05:39:45
<David A pdx> Sprinkler ie
05:39:56
<David A pdx> 27 min interval
05:48:39
<ynpvisitor92> I think we know where everyone is
05:48:55
<David A pdx> eating breakfast?
05:51:45
<Dave from B> eating rocks
05:52:02
<David A pdx> soaking in the sulfur fumes?
05:52:48
<ynpvisitor92> yep no F&7M
05:52:49
<ynpvisitor92> yep no F&M
05:56:34
<David A pdx> sprinkler quiet
05:56:54
<David A pdx> quieting
06:01:19
<David A pdx> Sprinkler appears quiet now
06:02:03
<David A pdx> should go in 2-5 min.
06:05:33
<David A pdx> hhmmm,
06:07:01
<David A pdx> Sprinkler seems to be ie.
06:07:41
<David A pdx> missed start
06:15:54
<Dave from B> It seems F&M isn't going this morning:(
06:18:12
<Dave from B> Morning Jenna
06:19:21
<Jenna> morning
06:21:40
<David A pdx> too bad it is getting warm in UGB... no steam!
06:30:10
<David A pdx> any idea what the bright flash on ridge line above Daisy area is?
06:31:08
<David A pdx> Sprinkler ie
06:31:18
<Dave from B> Sorry, David. I didn't see anything. What did it look like to you?
06:31:27
<David A pdx> just had my computer reset so don't know when it actually started.
06:31:28
<Jenna> like a white flash
06:31:47
<David A pdx> yep, like flash from mirror, or something.
06:31:55
<ynpvisitor57> David A pdx, I was wondering this also
06:32:03
<David A pdx> it's been happening fairly frequently
06:33:22
<David A pdx> there
06:35:12
<Dave from B> I believe there is a tower or something in that area. Maybe someone else on here will know for sure.
06:42:35
<David A pdx> sounds reasonable
06:48:28
<David A pdx> anyone else getting the evil circle this morning?
06:50:23
<Jenna> not yet
06:51:16
<ynpvisitor57> Sorry David, not yet here.
06:52:43
<Jimbo Barium> OK, appropriate for the upcoming 4th of July - what color in fireworks does barium produce? (Kudos if you know this without searching on the Web)
06:53:05
<David A pdx> blue?
06:53:17
<Jimbo Barium> Nope, that's copper
06:53:18
<ynpvisitor57> Blue?
06:53:44
<David A pdx> green
06:54:12
<Jimbo Barium> Yes, green.
06:54:33
<David A pdx> good guess!
06:54:57
<Biddle> Morning all
06:55:10
<Jimbo Barium> I actually thought both blue and green were different copper compounds
06:55:13
<David A pdx> Morning Biddle!
06:55:35
<ynpvisitor57> Thank-you Jimbo . Learning something new this AM.
07:05:55
<Biddle> 'morning Kevin
07:09:54
<ynpvisitor57> OF
07:18:12
<Dave from B> Morning Kevin, Biddle, Jimbo
07:18:37
<Jimbo Barium> Hello

<kc (working)> daisy ie
07:36:48
<Kevin L> Will posted new lodge cabin info for next on the listserv. Going from 96 cabins to 161 cabins!
07:37:59
<Dave from B> Good news except that is 60 more cars in tight cabin area
07:39:02
<Kevin L> And the new cabins are farther back.
07:39:32
<Kevin L> They should have their own parking too.
07:40:18
<Kent> More people in the Basin overnight means more vandalism to the thermal features. I was told that when they closed the campground vandalism dropped 90%
07:40:36
<Dave from B> Morning Kent
07:40:45
<Kent> Morning Dave.
07:41:18
<Dave from B> 200 more people in the area at night doesn't excite me but it should help gazers out immensely
07:41:51
<ynpvisitor45> That is a strange stat Kent. Since the campground closed there have been a lot of hotel rooms added
07:42:18
<Dave from B> Do you know when these cabins are slated for demolition? I feel I read somewhere in next 20 years they will be replaced by Canyon style lodges. Was I just dreaming that?
07:42:38
<Kevin L> I sure hope not!
07:43:00
<Kevin L> Of course in 20 years it won't matter for me!
07:43:41
<ynpvisitor45> Lots of bus tours book cabins now
07:43:58
<Kent> I don't think the number of new rooms comes close to the loss from the campground and several hundred cabins being removed. All I know is what I was told in my Institute class.
07:44:25
<Kent> There were 400 or 500 cabins in the UGB
07:44:38
<Dave from B> The way I look at it.....more rooms means more cancellations at the last minute
07:44:47
<Kent> :)
07:45:08
<Jenna> front desk people would appreciate more lodges instead of cabins I can tell you that :)
07:46:08
<Dave from B> Harder to clean cabins as well
07:46:23
<ynpvisitor603> I'm glad to see more cabins being added
07:47:41
<ynpvisitor603> Cabins are one of the only affordable lodging options in the park
07:48:15
<ynpvisitor603> Even then they're almost $100 a night now with tax (w/ no bath)
07:49:51
<Dave from B> I know a few gazers aren't visiting as much because of higher cabin prices.
07:52:38
<ynpvisitor45> What about 18 hour BH last night? Turning back to its irregular self?
07:54:40
<Dave from B> Longest interval since May 5:(
07:55:20
<ynpvisitor45> Hopefully it will swing back
07:58:24
<Dave from B> Hopefully, a few will get a F&M, BH, Grand Day today
08:03:11
<ynpvisitor45> Or they could watch the rocks again all day...though Graham said his event cycle was a good one
08:06:58
<Betty> hello all
08:11:10
<Betty> Depression
08:11:52
<ynpvisitor45> Graham posted from Black Sand Basin, I guess he is figuring he had time before next event cycle
08:17:06
<Dave from B> How many minute walk to BSB from F&M...15 minutes?
08:19:01
<Betty> hi Dave
08:19:01
<ynpvisitor603> Just about
08:19:23
<ynpvisitor603> We were at BSB one year when we heard splashing in Main
08:19:35
<ynpvisitor603> and were able to get there in time for F&M
08:20:01
<Betty> cool

09:00:32
<Betty> hi Jake. Good timing
09:26:23
<Dave from B> Graham is aleready at Grand
09:27:41
<kc (working)> uncertain ie
09:27:55
<kc (working)> nice catch
09:28:08
<Jimbo Barium> Very clear view!
09:28:15
<Betty> great
09:28:25
<Betty> thanks vw :-)
09:29:16
<Betty> next event cycle is in gt
09:29:36
<Betty> or is it on GT?
09:29:50
<Betty> german mistake...
09:31:10
<kc (working)> sounds ok to me either way
09:31:28
<Betty> really?
09:31:37
<Betty> both is right?
09:32:20
<Betty> that is how it is in German, we can use both
09:32:36
<kc (working)> sounds synonymous to this guy
09:49:35
<Betty> both Anemones!
09:52:59
<kc (working)> shorter15hr interval from artemisia
09:56:49
<Dave from B> Another event cycle at F&M...no eruption
09:57:29
<Dave from B> I think Steve O's name should be changed to Uncertain Steve O
09:57:47
<Betty> haha
09:58:06
<Dave from B> Or, that could be the name of his traveling Grill
10:07:52
<Betty> Daisy
10:08:19
<Betty> the end?
10:11:57
<Eric> lion...ie
10:12:21
<Eric> LC
10:12:30
<Betty> ie
10:12:39
<Eric> anemone
10:13:26
<Eric> Anemone is very active toay
10:13:28
<Eric> today
10:14:42
<Eric> OF
10:33:38
<Eric> ugg, broken camera
10:34:01
<Betty> bah
10:34:24
<Eric> NPS and chat page are both down
10:34:58
<Dave from B> Who tripped over the cord?
10:35:03
<Betty> Graham blackened the cam :-)
11:00:19
<ynpvisitor17> It's Graham's fault !!
11:00:35
<Betty> sure it is!
11:01:06
<ynpvisitor17> He wants the basin all to himself
11:02:03
<Betty> did he close all entrances yet ;-) ?
11:02:24
<ynpvisitor17> So many gazers there, we will not miss any times
11:02:30
<Dave from B> You sure someone didn't cut the tree down?
11:02:45
<ynpvisitor17> West Gate is empty of cars, maybe he has!!!
11:02:48
<Betty> hopefully not!
11:07:50
<Betty> they stopped posting Turban times. Maybe all are at the rockpile
11:11:15
<Betty> Cam is back
11:11:19
<Betty> Lion ie
11:11:19
<Dave from B> Barely
11:11:33
<Dave from B> lost it again
11:11:54
<Betty> bah
11:13:54
<Betty> back
11:18:35
<ynpvisitor11> we are getting times - they must have a posting delay this time of day
11:19:23
<Betty> yes, maybe the internet was down
11:20:35
<Kevin L> If the cam was down internet was probably down too.
11:21:20
<ynpvisitor11> makes sense- does that affect the app too?
11:21:49
<Betty> think it does
11:22:09
<Kevin L> Should not affect the app but those in the basin would not be able to post to it.
11:22:13
<Betty> hey Kevin
11:22:17
<ynpvisitor11> or just bad cell signal
11:22:43
<Betty> that is what I meant, Kevin
11:24:36
<Betty> Turban?
11:24:55
<Betty> yep
11:27:06
<ynpvisitor17> Cam is on a T1 line, completely separate from cell tower
11:28:20
<ynpvisitor11> but - sometimes there is no cell signal due to congestion
11:28:43
<ynpvisitor17> Yes, just a different issue
11:29:22
<ynpvisitor17> SteveO and Graham seem to be able to post
11:29:40
<ynpvisitor11> this weekend should put it all to the test :P
11:30:16
<Betty> Dome ie
11:30:27
<ynpvisitor11> I happened to be looking at GT when some entries came in, about 10 minutes delayed
11:30:47
<ynpvisitor11> the time uploaded wasn't the time they actually came in to my screen
11:31:33
<Kevin L> Cell towers don't work too well without power.
11:31:55
<ynpvisitor17> They have power
11:32:11
<Betty> starts to rain
11:32:42
<ynpvisitor17> The uploaded time is the time it goes through to GT
11:33:00
<ynpvisitor17> Maybe a delay in our seeing it
11:33:33
<ynpvisitor11> maybe mine wasn't refreshing then - I saw Lion and others appear at 1318 and they were uploaded 1309-ish
11:34:40
<ynpvisitor17> Not sure what is up, yet the uploaded time is time they posted to GT
11:35:39
<ynpvisitor17> Will's Lion time did take 3 minutes to upload
11:39:58
<ynpvisitor17> Looks like hail with the rain
12:01:32
<Betty> OF near end
12:15:07
<Betty> Lion wheezes a bit
12:15:44
<Biddle> Of is ie off screen (probably)
12:16:13
<ynpvisitor30> OF was 1358
12:16:15
<Betty> no
12:17:01
<Biddle> im just seeing a load of steam from the right side and wondering.
12:18:37
<Eric> That is a lot of steam from OF
12:19:23
<ynpvisitor30> just that kind of day
12:19:26
<Betty> maybe the supervolcano starts to erupt
12:20:24
<ynpvisitor30> cam op betting on Lion over Grand
12:28:27
<Betty> LLC
12:28:41
<Betty> LLCC ;-)
12:44:18
<Dave from B> Still no F&M...grrrrr
12:45:04
<Betty> guess who is in lead, Dave...?
12:45:28
<Betty> 2 min to play
12:45:58
<Betty> Daisy
12:47:33
<ynpvisitor52> Maybe the weather is wreaking havoc on F&M
12:48:03
<Biddle> i will be back later
12:48:21
<Betty> later, Biddle
12:51:43
<Dave from B> So weather effetcs F&M similar to Daisy?
13:03:56
<Betty> LC ie
13:05:40
<Betty> Grand seems to be affected too. At 8:30 now
13:06:55
<Dave from B> Graham is sdoing a lot of sitting:(
13:23:33
<Betty> Grand
13:34:51
<Betty> OF
13:36:33
<ynpvisitor52> Nice OF
13:44:02
<Dave from B> Almost looks like snow at 67F
13:50:41
<ynpvisitor20> Graham will be soggy.
13:53:37
<ynpvisitor52> Now comes the BH or rock pile decision...
13:54:19
<Dave from B> or hiding in the bathroom
13:54:34
<Betty> haha
13:55:19
<Dave from B> Betty, I'm shocked by todays Euro outcome
13:55:21
<ynpvisitor11> that is a soaker
14:00:32
<Betty> It was a really good game, Dave. Not that Belgium was too weak. No, that had enough chances. But Wales played better, not with more luck
14:01:00
<Dave from B> Are you ready for tomorrow's game?
14:01:13
<Dave from B> Nice BH splash
14:01:22
<Betty> sure! :-)
14:09:12
<Betty> LC
14:12:41
<ynpvisitor94> cam may end up alerting about indy today
14:13:04
<ynpvisitor94> though last night's BH had no indy
14:13:35
<Dave from B> Thansk for mentioning that 94...didn't know
14:14:22
<Dave from B> I'm thinking we still have abount 90 minutes before BH
14:14:51
<Betty> Eric is here, it can go now
14:14:55
<Eric> Nice splash
14:14:58
<Eric> haha
14:15:11
<Eric> That looked like a 60 minute splash to me :-P
14:15:14
<Betty> waited for you
14:15:19
<ynpvisitor94> good splashing
14:15:29
<Eric> You can press the button now Betty.
14:15:55
<Dave from B> haha Eric
14:16:41
<ynpvisitor94> maybe it's an event cycle at F & M, strange there is not even one gazer at BH
14:17:08
<Eric> 7 days on F&M...I am sure the hype is high down on the rocks :-D
14:17:17
<Dave from B> Time for a sacrifice. Have a great evening everyone!
14:17:25
<Eric> Cya dave
14:17:28
<ynpvisitor94> at 14 1/2 hours
14:17:31
<Eric> Have a good 4th
14:17:39
<Betty> bye, Dave
14:17:43
<Dave from B> Thanks. you as well
14:18:03
<ynpvisitor94> is market closed on 4th?
14:18:17
<Dave from B> Open tomorrow. Closed Monday
14:18:42
<Dave from B> It has been the best week in the market since Valentines Week. Who says people don't eat seafood for the 4th?
14:19:01
<ynpvisitor94> nice, congrats
14:19:10
<Eric> It's your marketing skillz :-D
14:19:11
<Dave from B> Spending tomorrow night at Silver Gate with my 85 year old mom, wife and son.
14:19:32
<ynpvisitor94> I would guess the market is always open on Saturday
14:19:35
<Dave from B> My daughter is doing an awesome job!:)
14:19:55
<Betty> great :-)
14:20:00
<Dave from B> Yes. Last year we closed on Holiday Saturdays but not any longer
14:20:04
<Eric> Can you smell retirement now :-P
14:20:12
<Dave from B> 7 years to go!
14:20:19
<ynpvisitor94> have a good night Dave
14:20:25
<Dave from B> bye

<Eric> Nice water in BH for a minute
16:05:45
<David A pdx> In case anyone is interested I've just posted a video of the "New Feature" near Plume. It was taken 22 June: https://www.flickr.com/photos/ujelang/27412950194/in/photolist-HLox3j-JzLJiM-JzLHEx-JzLJKt-JGDa7n-HLoedv-4TKufK

<Biddle> you can do that in Windows Movie Maker, i think
16:13:56
<David A pdx> Thanks!
