05:11:10 <ynpvisitor38> Today is the 700th day of the active phase. Wow.
05:14:00 <ynpvisitor38> Riverside
05:14:22 <Ryan (Desk)> Wow, like a steam bomb went off
06:04:04 <Ryan (Desk)> Daisy
06:28:33 <Joe> Lion
06:48:50 <Joe> Bison resting on a warm spot
06:49:38 <CraigC> is that the name of song?
06:49:46 <CraigC> hey Joe
06:50:11 <Joe> Hi Craig
06:53:05 <CraigC> I can take it whenever you are ready
06:53:25 <CraigC> of
06:53:30 <Joe> The bison came from Myriad area spent time in the meadow then moved to that warm spot
06:54:04 <Joe> Be my guest :)
06:54:20 <CraigC> wow, you killed it last night
06:54:54 <Joe> Good viewing after the moon came up
06:55:15 <CraigC> filled the whole panel with night entries
06:55:51 <CraigC> hey Linda
06:56:00 <Lindag> Good morning
06:56:16 <Lindag> I just realized I have Katie's shift
06:56:27 <CraigC> at 830?
06:56:29 <Lindag> CraigC, hi
06:56:39 <Lindag> Yeah
06:57:10 <CraigC> look at all the predictions on the board cuz of Joe
06:57:42 <Lindag> 🙂 hes on a roll
06:58:47 <CraigC> maybe arty ?
06:59:02 <CraigC> or is all of that from grotto?
06:59:07 <Ryan (Desk)> Not enough steam i think
06:59:26 <CraigC> yeah, I think all that higher steam is from grotto area
06:59:35 <Lindag> Oh maybe kat has it, I volunteered but kat wanted it.
06:59:46 <Ryan (Desk)> I could argue Atomizer though if the column goes away soon
06:59:53 <Lindag> I'll keep am
07:00:09 <Lindag> I'll keep an eye on it
07:02:09 <CraigC> al
07:04:37 <Lindag> So steamboat is alive and well
07:05:46 <Cooper> yes, SB is nice, warm, and happy:)
07:05:58 <Lindag> Cooper, hi
07:06:08 <Cooper> Good Morning Linda, Everyone Else.
07:06:27 <Lindag> Doggies
07:06:43 <Cooper> Which Kind Linda?:p
07:07:15 <Joe> hot doggies :)
07:07:39 <Cooper> Think if you had a bison as a pet, how many bison burgers you would have:)
07:07:51 <Lindag> Looks like a nice warm spot
07:08:29 <Cooper> lone human
07:08:29 <Lindag> So the answer is I have Katie's shift today. Almost forgot.
07:09:40 <Lindag> That's the first gathering ive seen since wolves
07:10:12 <Joe> Do you realize that PETA does not allow you to use the word "pet"
07:10:49 <CraigC> hey Dave
07:11:13 <Dave from B™> Morning CraigC, fellow gazers
07:11:28 <Lindag> Dave from B™, morning
07:11:38 <Cooper> Hello Fish Man
07:14:07 <CraigC> ab just ended
07:16:00 <Lindag> That asphalt looked pink, blood?
07:16:01 <Dave from B™> CraigC, we are into Season 3 on Breaking Bad already
07:16:21 <CraigC> Dave from B™, wow, you got into it
07:16:43 <CraigC> we are watching 4th season of Better Call Saul, the spinoff
07:17:36 <Dave from B™> Yep, and I here there is a movie about Jesse as well?
07:17:39 <Dave from B™> hear*
07:17:43 <CraigC> wonder if that is crested pool or black sand pool
07:18:08 <CraigC> Dave from B™, that movie was decent
07:18:10 <Dave from B™> You mean Punch Bowl Spring or Black Sand?
07:18:21 <CraigC> yeah, punch bowl...LOL
07:18:39 <CraigC> it IS crested ;)
07:19:07 <Lindag> Ive tried 3 times now to watch breaking bad, but I just cant get into it. Even started at season 2.
07:19:14 <CraigC> bulger ie
07:19:22 <Dave from B™> CraigC, I speak your language. I know what you meant
07:19:40 <Dave from B™> Linda, you have to start at the beginning
07:20:04 <CraigC> Lindag, if you can't get to the 5th or 6th episode, it takes off from there
07:20:07 <CraigC> can
07:23:16 <CraigC> one of The Dwarfs
07:23:38 <Lindag> I did watch very beginning. I just accept it's not my kind of show at this point.
07:24:35 <CraigC> al again
07:25:05 <Dave from B™> Linda, that is okay. Drugs is the furthest thing from our family but the ins and outs of character roles and hidden stuff makes it a good show.
07:26:10 <Lindag> Dave from B™, it's weird my husband doesnt like it either so it works out. Well just go watch the Sopranos again. Lol
07:26:52 <Lindag> *we'll
07:27:02 <Dave from B™> Yep.Everyone has there favs. I can't stand mafia or war movies.
07:27:49 <CraigC> I love war movies and westerns and mafia
07:27:56 <Lindag> Well when you live in Jersey, its second nature 😀
07:28:35 <Lindag> Not crazy about war but love westerns and mafia is ok.
07:30:07 <Dave from B™> Do either on you remember a TV show titled Alias Smith & Jones?
07:30:12 <Dave from B™> of*
07:31:30 <CraigC> yeah, watched that all the time
07:32:02 <Lindag> I looked at picture, I dont remember it
07:32:35 <Dave from B™> I always enjoyed it. Made me laugh. Of course, when your last name is Smith:)
07:32:53 <CraigC> aurum no?
07:32:57 <Joe> AURUM
07:33:02 <Cooper> .
07:33:03 <Cooper> .
07:33:03 <Cooper> .
07:33:03 <Cooper> .
07:33:15 <Cooper> yay
07:33:24 <Lindag> Nice
07:34:02 <Lindag> And it killed the cam lol
07:34:12 <Dave from B™> Some SB data for everyone...
07:34:43 <Dave from B™> Last 100 Median stays the same at 7d17h46m
07:34:44 <Joe> cam working here
07:35:03 <Dave from B™> Last 100 Mean drops 3 hours
07:35:20 <Dave from B™> We are now over 11 days behind last years pace
07:35:21 <CraigC> old tardy
07:35:40 <Dave from B™> We are on pace for 33-34 eruptions this year
07:44:03 <Lindag> Dave from B™, 👍 thx
07:50:00 <Lindag> See that pink/ red to the right?
07:50:10 <CraigC> yeah
07:50:17 <Lindag> Blood?
07:50:33 <Lindag> Or just different color dirt
07:52:29 <Ryan (Desk)> dirt
07:52:39 <Ryan (Desk)> pretty common colors in the basin
07:52:59 <Ryan (Desk)> The mounds between OF and the webcam have the same color
07:53:25 <Lindag> 👍
07:54:22 <Ryan (Desk)> Lion
07:54:38 <CraigC> minor?
07:55:19 <CraigC> right when I hit the preset it burst
07:55:23 <Ryan (Desk)> Yup
07:57:31 <CraigC> bulger
08:06:15 <Dave from B™> Not much of a seismo footprint for SB
08:09:45 <CraigC> the 2 days of minors and eruption boggles me
08:12:37 <Dave from B™> Minors could be starting 12-24 hours earlier than logger shows. It just might not be enough to melt the runoff channel
08:13:11 <Ryan (Desk)> I think theres been a definite exhancge of something
08:13:17 <Dave from B™> It will be nice to remove snow and ice from the Norris scene and see what SB is doing.....C'mon, Spring!!
08:13:26 <CraigC> perhaps.... but not significant minors, IMO
08:13:37 <Dave from B™> that's true, Criag
08:14:16 <Dave from B™> Ryan, because of Cistern?
08:14:19 <CraigC> even during 6 and 7 days patterns last summer, 2 days was on the early side
08:17:03 <Ryan (Desk)> Yeah, Cistern and SB itself.
08:17:36 <Ryan (Desk)> The sudden occurence and then cessation of the "false start" spikes is telling.
08:18:47 <Dave from B™> Yeah, not as many big temp readings on last couple of eruptions
08:19:14 <Ryan (Desk)> And none of the troughs indicating a cessation of minor activity.
08:19:42 <Ryan (Desk)> That SB had one event like that, and then several - both of which effectively created 14 day intervals - and then it just *stoppeD* is telling that something shifted in the system IMO
08:20:09 <Ryan (Desk)> Combine that with teh apparent chemistry changes in Cistern and I think its a fair different ball game from a month ago
08:21:42 <CraigC> what chemistry changes? I missed that
08:22:47 <Ryan (Desk)> Cistern is depositing sinter extremely rapidly now.
08:23:05 <Ryan (Desk)> The description and photos sounds similar to what happened at Vixen a few years ago.
08:23:45 <CraigC> is there any explanation for then that happens? I'm still really new to geyser stuff
08:23:50 <CraigC> for when
08:24:08 <Ryan (Desk)> Water chemistry changes at Norris arent that uncommon.
08:24:35 <Dave from B™> What would cause a chemistry change....hotter temps?
08:24:46 <Ryan (Desk)> Norris is a pretty chemically diverse basin - which is why you see so much acidity there, and different colors and geyserite formations than you do elsewhere.
08:25:13 <Ryan (Desk)> The LGB, MGB, UGB, and WT have pretty consistent chemistries - qualitatively "they all look the same"
08:26:00 <Ryan (Desk)> Norris is an outlier in that its not like the rest of the basins. And its not unocmmon to have sudden shifts to alkaline waters rich in silica (Vixen, most of Porcelain Basin, and Cistern).
08:26:25 <Ryan (Desk)> Cistern in fact used to not deposit silica, that is a newere thing (a few decades ago)
08:27:12 <Ryan (Desk)> As to what causes the chemistry shifts I have no clue. Temperature has something to do with it I am sure - as does acidity/alkalinity and the bedrock unit the water is being stored in.
08:28:03 <Lindag> CraigC, it looks like you left me so e geysers 🙂
08:28:12 <CraigC> ooops, when did OF start
08:28:12 <Lindag> *some
08:28:24 <Lindag> Not sure
08:28:26 <CraigC> I was paying attention to our puppy
08:28:28 <Ryan (Desk)> I am also sure that Norris's location on the flanks of the caldera and on a few fault lines has something to do with it too - more access to rocks that are more FUBARed than the rocks in the UGB, MGB, and LGB.
08:28:59 <Dave from B™> I would think hotter temps would change the rate of which things dissolve...but, I am NOT a chemistry person.
08:29:03 <Ryan (Desk)> Micah or Bill would know more than I would. MA may be of help too.
08:29:16 <Dave from B™> All the chemistry I have learned has been from Walter White
08:29:22 <Ryan (Desk)> Typically, yes, Dave. Not always though.
08:29:26 <CraigC> hahahaha
08:29:46 <Ryan (Desk)> Limestone (calcite) actually dissolves better when the water is colder depending on other conditions.
08:30:17 <ynpvisitor89> Most of the limestone in Yellowstone is by Mammoth
08:30:21 <Lindag> CraigC, i was reading the chat
08:31:18 <Lindag> Ready raig
08:31:26 <CraigC> all yours
08:31:27 <Lindag> *craig
08:31:38 <In the Act> Whiteout at lake cam
08:31:57 <Lindag> Thx, got it
08:40:18 <ynpvisitor64> daisy is done, likley during
08:41:07 <LindaGp> think so
08:43:53 <LindaGp> looks like grand is averaging 6hr Intervals lately
08:46:32 <LindaGp> grand
08:46:34 <LindaGp> .
08:46:35 <LindaGp> .
08:47:08 <LindaGp> 6hrs ago
08:47:29 <Ryan (Desk)> haha
08:49:06 <LindaGp> 😊 on the nose
08:53:57 <LindaGp> hey a spike
08:59:06 <LindaGp> never fails, where. there are bison thwre are people
09:16:58 <LindaGp> stupid is as stupid does
09:17:19 <CraigC> did you call vec
09:17:23 <Dave from B™> They are further away than it looks
09:17:37 <Dave from B™> Are they on or off trail?
09:17:53 <LindaGp> other people were ofd
09:18:42 <CraigC> I would give VEC a call for a heads up, let them check
09:19:04 <CraigC> they can look at this view
09:22:57 <LindaGp> bilger ie
09:23:09 <LindaGp> 😃 bulger
09:25:13 <LindaGp> what is that?
09:25:40 <LindaGp> rift?
09:27:27 <LindaGp> .
09:35:18 <LindaGp> hi betty
09:35:54 <Betty> hi Linda
09:36:06 <Betty> oh, doggies
09:36:30 <LindaGp>
09:36:35 <Betty> and Steamboat yesterday
09:37:02 <LindaGp> good lighting
09:45:57 <Dave from B™> finally some COLOR:)
09:47:54 <LindaGp> I like the red dogs
09:47:56 <Betty> morning Dave
09:51:29 <Dave from B™> Hi Betty
09:59:19 <Kevin L™ 🌵> I see you left me OF
09:59:58 <LindaGp> ☺ yup I told it to hole on for Kevin
10:00:07 <LindaGp> *hold
10:00:19 <LindaGp> controls released
10:00:38 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Got it
10:01:11 <ynpvisitor22> A couple ti es o thought it would go....but nooooo
10:01:28 <ynpvisitor22> *times I
10:01:46 <ynpvisitor22> Hi KevinS
10:02:05 <KevinS> ynpvisitor22, good morning
10:04:02 <Eric> Morning
10:06:16 <Dave from B™> Morning Eric and Kevin
10:07:06 <ynpvisitor22> Eric, hi
10:07:14 <ynpvisitor22> Cya all later
10:10:29 <Eric> Hi Dave & 22
10:10:35 <Eric> aka Linda :-D
10:10:43 <Eric> Bye 22 aka Linda
10:13:53 <KevinS> Dave from B™, where is your market? Are you close to the park?
10:15:14 <Dave from B™> In Billings, MT....just 3 hours from Steamboat
10:16:14 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Unless there is a deer in the road.
10:16:39 <KevinS> Good deal. I was thinking about a drive up that way this year. Would be nice to get quality fish to take back to camp and cook under the coals.
10:18:49 <Dave from B™> KevinS, are you from CO?
10:19:02 <KevinS> Arkansas
10:19:56 <Dave from B™> That's a long haul.
10:20:20 <KevinS> And always worth it!
10:20:54 <KevinS> 23 hour drive
10:21:05 <Dave from B™> 2 day trip?
10:23:25 <Betty> hi Eric, KevinS and Kevin L™ 🌵
10:23:32 <Kevin L™ 🌵> hi
10:23:53 <KevinS> Hi
10:24:23 <KevinS> Dave, we drive straight thru.
10:24:39 <ynpvisitor4> Dave, what did you have to pay for 100 NZ monopoly dollars? Colorful little buggers, aren't they?
10:27:21 <Dave from B™> They are cool. Exchange was 68.8%
10:27:58 <ynpvisitor4> Not bad, I figured they would have got you for 5 bucks.
10:28:08 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Are they paper or plastic?
10:28:59 <ynpvisitor4> I think it is a jailable offense to put the queen in your wallet and set on her.
10:30:05 <ynpvisitor4> They did a good job on these decoys, Disney could not make them any more life like.
10:33:00 <Dave from B™> paper but they have some see thru plastic on parts
10:33:15 <ynpvisitor4> https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/e/e0/NewZealandTwentyDollarNote1.png/377px-NewZealandTwentyDollarNote1.png
10:34:30 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Canada has some that are plastic. They warn you to check your pockets before you do laundry because they will melt in the dryer.
10:34:58 <Dave from B™> The size of bill increases with denomination
10:35:32 <ynpvisitor4> The old paper money and coins from Canada also melted in value, I guess nothing chages.
10:37:06 <Kevin L™ 🌵> I get German model railroad stuff from Canada and it is cheaper than getting it from Germany. They ship from Washington state too so it saves a lot on postage.
10:37:45 <Eric> Hi Betty
10:41:08 <ynpvisitor4> Does it have to do with teriffs or VAT?
10:42:34 <Kevin L™ 🌵> I think mostly exchange rate. They are near the Washington border so they just go down there and mail them.
10:43:47 <Kevin L™ 🌵> I know when I was in Germany if we bought Marks before we went to France and changed the Marks for Francs we came out a lot better.
10:45:53 <ynpvisitor4> Mmm Franks, best with good mustard
10:46:14 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Spicy brown with horseradish.
10:46:23 <ynpvisitor4> Well, I am off to swap out table saws.
10:46:33 <ynpvisitor4> Hope it will be worth it.
10:47:13 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Sounds fun. Mine is a Delta cast iron monster from the '60's.
10:48:35 <Betty> aurum on static?
10:50:21 <Joe> 3h 17 min since last A
10:51:05 <Kevin L™ 🌵> It would be a bit early but not impossible.
10:51:46 <Kevin L™ 🌵> First race that means something toknight. Looking forward to that.
10:53:38 <Dave from B™> Yep....time for a #18 repeat
10:54:23 <Joe> Daisy
10:54:54 <Joe> /
10:55:55 <Kevin L™ 🌵> We have been watching the races from a short track near Daytona all week and they have been awesome. One last night was so close that I couldn't tell on a 55" TV who had won from a freeze frame at the line. Took officials 15m to figure it out.
11:00:36 <In the Act> Wow, long meeting. Giantess is all done, right?
11:01:04 <Kevin L™ 🌵> I think so
11:08:46 <Eric> Hey, does anyone have a short clip of that young wolf howling from the first evening they were there?
11:09:04 <Eric> Would love to share that with YNP and their current post.
11:10:00 <Joe> The one that was all alone?
11:10:23 <Eric> Yep, and he was sitting howling for his pack.
11:10:37 <Eric> If you have a link to the section, I can clip it
11:11:13 <Joe> I have it, i'm sure, I'll find it give me a few
11:21:44 <Eric> Thanks Joe
11:26:53 <Betty> BSB
11:34:50 <Betty> OF
11:35:07 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Nope
11:35:15 <Kevin L™ 🌵> BIG preplay
11:35:39 <Eric> I found it Joe: https://youtu.be/gtPeNUPLvGQ?t=255
11:35:51 <Betty> what?? a Herb Warren splash on that? ;)
11:36:19 <Kevin L™ 🌵> It did everything BUT erupt. OF minor?
11:39:33 <Eric> Ugg, I hate those...now probably a delay
11:40:01 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Probably?
11:40:52 <Joe> Thanks Eric any videos that I gave to NPS were best given from google drive the other up load services would not work for them, they did not want a you tube link
11:42:48 <Ryan (desk)> Wow
11:42:49 <Eric> Youtube link worked for me...I just posted with a link to the moment the wolf was howling.
11:42:53 <Ryan (desk)> That had a duration of 1m 10s
11:43:06 <Ryan (desk)> 11:33:30 to 11:34:40
11:43:28 <Ryan (desk)> I'd like to note that that preplay was taller than and lasted longer than Aurum
11:43:29 <Dave from B™> The OF minor?
11:43:46 <Eric> Yep, definitely an eruption.
11:43:55 <Ryan (desk)> I would atleast leave a note for that
11:44:10 <Eric> Thanks for calcing duration Ryan
11:44:27 <Joe> Ah ok I thought you meant to the NPS webcam page, my mistake, sorry
11:45:03 <Ryan (desk)> left a note, Joe can you post a capture of that
11:45:43 <Eric> :thumbsup:
11:48:03 <Ryan (desk)> Now 15min past the "minir"
11:48:31 <Joe> i'll have it up in a few
11:49:46 <Ryan (desk)> uh
11:50:02 <Ryan (desk)> is it stuck?
11:50:17 <Ryan (desk)> ort not
11:50:25 <Ryan (desk)> OF 1149
11:50:42 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Took a while
11:51:25 <Ryan (desk)> Yeah I thought we were having another minor lol
11:51:52 <Kevin L™ 🌵> One of the strangest OF eruptions I have seen.
11:52:41 <ynpvisitor6> Well this eruption now looks pretty normal.
11:52:54 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Going to be a long
11:52:55 <ynpvisitor6> I'll be interested to see the "minor"!
11:56:03 <Ryan (desk)> I enjoyed the "minor" lol
11:56:38 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Only the third time I have seen it do that.
11:57:08 <Joe1> OF minor https://youtu.be/Uq9kSEva9js
11:57:29 <Ryan (desk)> Idve entered that as a legit minor eruption but it would cause a s**tstorm of "minor" proportions.
11:57:49 <Joe> :)
11:58:27 <ynpvisitor6> Wow. Thanks Joe!
11:59:42 <Joe> YW
12:00:06 <Eric> haha...Joe beat me to it
12:00:12 <Eric> Here is a download link: Blue Iris Mystery School
12:00:14 <Eric> woops
12:00:19 <ynpvisitor43> OF does not have minors, just diminished majors.
12:00:48 <Ryan (desk)> minor majors?
12:01:21 <Eric> haha
12:02:06 <ynpvisitor43> The advertising people would go apoplectic if someone started calling of a minor geyser.
12:02:44 <Joe> Did you notice just before the Wolf pup howled he has a poop :) moment :)
12:02:50 <Eric> I was big preplay!
12:03:04 <Eric> Yep, he made a nice long howl movement :-P
12:03:09 <ynpvisitor43> Well, enjoy the bees. I will be back at lunch to try and catch it.
12:03:42 <Betty> nice sky on static
12:04:38 <Ryan (desk)> https://imgflip.com/i/3p46sz
12:05:06 <Eric> :-)
12:05:18 <Eric> We don't all have to be the same, it's ok.
12:06:35 <Ryan (desk)> minors
12:06:39 <Ryan (desk)> :lol:
12:06:47 <LindaG> Cool OF preplay/minor 😉 thx for video joe
12:06:48 <Eric> Your a pot stirrer!
12:07:17 <LindaG> Eric, me or Ryan
12:07:17 <Ryan (desk)> You are all welcome. :love:
12:07:39 <Joe> Eric where did you post the howl video?
12:14:02 <Eric> Ryan, Linda

12:15:17 <Joe> thanks
12:18:04 <LindaG> Nice
12:53:00 <Joe> Aurum

12:58:02 <Joe> OF minor https://youtu.be/Uq9kSEva9js
12:58:14 <ynpvisitor12> thanks
13:01:02 <Dave from B™> Has there ever been an Aurum duration of 2 minutes or longer
13:12:13 <Joe> Daisy
13:14:08 <Joe> Can you tell I have no life other than this :)
13:14:41 <Dave from B™> What about your wife of 50+ years?:)
13:15:01 <Joe> Well...there is that :)
13:17:16 <Dave from B™> We are in such a lawyer infested legal swamp...Get this....I'm trying to get paperwork donw before I leave. I'm trying to downlad an explanation of benfits from my insurance company to get the bill paid and sine I'm not the one who went to the dr, I have no access to my wife's or 2 youngest kids medical claims. I pay the bills and we are all at one address. This it tital Bull**it
13:17:41 <Dave from B™> total*
13:18:27 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Try it when a person is dead.
13:18:34 <Chancellor> a lot of people for a winter OF erruption, especially on the static cam
13:19:34 <Chancellor> of course, nice day, little wind, after lunch, lots of snowmobiles
13:21:08 <Dave from B™> It's the noon time eruption....it's the busiest in summer as well
13:21:45 <Joe> Yes, I had to get my family members to authorize me to take care of their medical Issues, Kevin is right, get those authorizations early in life.
13:22:34 <Kevin L™ 🌵> I was able to get a lot of that done for my Dad but not all. Keep this in mind for your Mom Dave.
13:25:18 <Dave from B™> My wife has medical power of attorney over my mom and it has helped immensely
13:25:39 <Dave from B™> I have the financial power of attorney and that has also been easy transition
13:25:45 <Joe> I know it is hard to think about being incapacitated or death, but with the current laws it has to be done, don't forget to authorize them to your issues,,, it happens
13:26:59 <Dave from B™> Yep...and it easy to procrastinate on that stuff
13:30:05 <JarnoO> g'day all
13:31:06 <JarnoO> must've been 'fun' having to sit through 16 minutes of preplay following that minor
13:31:58 <JarnoO> fluffy
13:32:10 <JarnoO> fast start
13:32:36 <ynpvisitor84> And so the ritual of holding a phone to your face begins...
13:33:04 <Betty> evening JarnoO
13:33:15 <JarnoO> evening Betty
13:34:06 <Dave from B™> 84, who you calling...internet provider? insurance company?
13:35:55 <ynpvisitor84> No, I was referring to the gazers on the WC, seemed they all starting recording at the same time
13:38:17 <ynpvisitor84> Surprisingly, OF does not make the top 10 most photographed landmarks / natural places in the US
13:39:34 <Dave from B™> White House, Grand Canyon, Half Dome?
13:40:18 <ynpvisitor84> Tourist traps like Niagara Falls, also Yosemite, and Grand Canyon do make the list
13:47:49 <Dave from B™> Las Vegas, Disney World, Gateway Arch, Golden Gate Bridge?
13:48:22 <Betty> Delicate Arch?
13:48:42 <Betty> Statue of Liberty?
13:49:06 <Betty> Mt. Rushmore?
13:49:09 <Dave from B™> Yes, Statue of L has to be there
13:49:14 <Dave from B™> yep, Mt Rushmore
13:49:37 <Betty> Golden Gate I think
13:50:41 <Chancellor> New York skyline
13:51:11 <Betty> Hollywood sign?
13:51:52 <Betty> Alcatraz?
13:52:22 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Welcome to Las Vegas sign.
13:52:36 <Dave from B™> Betty, I'm impressed. I couldn't name 10 landmarks in Germany
13:52:59 <Betty> yes, Kevin
13:53:08 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Hofbrauhaus
13:53:25 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Brandenberg gate
13:53:57 <Betty> Brandenburger Tor :p
13:54:01 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Kehlsteinhaus
13:54:28 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Heidelberg Castle
13:54:33 <Betty> Dave, Burg Eltz
13:54:35 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Kassel
13:54:45 <Betty> Neuschwanstein
13:55:35 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Probably the #1
13:56:35 <Betty> Just googled 10 most photographed landmarks in US. Where/what the heck is Biltmore Estate???
13:56:59 <ynpvisitor9> if you googled it, don't you know now?
13:57:29 <Betty> nope. never heard of it
13:57:33 <ynpvisitor9> pretty easy to find out Betty
13:58:12 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Very large house.
13:58:17 <ynpvisitor9> I would guess there are a lot of things in the US you have not heard of, especially east coast things.
13:58:29 <Dave from B™> Love Berg Eltz. That would be in your top 10?
13:59:03 <Ryan (desk)> 9, keep our stuff secret.
13:59:04 <Dave from B™> I've never heard of Biltmore Estate
13:59:06 <Betty> yes, I don´t know much of east coast yet, I must confess.......
13:59:08 <Ryan (desk)> We have nothing here.
13:59:29 <Ryan (desk)> The east is a wasteland of cow poop and crumbling steel infrastructure.
13:59:48 <Ryan (desk)> Move along, now.
14:00:26 <Dave from B™> Boston is worth a visit, Betty
14:00:56 <Ryan (desk)> What is Boston?
14:01:08 <Dave from B™> Just to eat Italian in the north End
14:01:11 <Kevin L™ 🌵> There are a lot of good thing near the east coast. Datona Speedway, Bristol Speedway, Martinsville Speedway, Richmond Speedway...
14:01:21 <Dave from B™> hahaha
14:01:27 <Dave from B™> Cape Canaveral
14:01:36 <Ryan (desk)> None of those things are real.
14:01:39 <Ryan (desk)> Go flood the wesy
14:01:58 <Dave from B™> Mammoth Cave, Luray Caverns
14:02:09 <Dave from B™> Is thta better, Ryan?:)
14:02:24 <Ryan (desk)> Especially those.
14:02:28 <Ryan (desk)> They definitely are not real.
14:04:18 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Horseshoe Curve, Maine 2 footers, Cass Scenic Railroad...
14:04:52 <Dave from B™> Wall Drug
14:05:09 <Ryan (desk)> Leave my states alone :c
14:05:58 <Ryan (desk)> Actually, WV better get its act together and get a tourism bureau or we are gonna be screwed in this state.
14:07:02 <Ryan (desk)> Out for the evening. Adios everyone. May get back on for the logger uploads and/or Beehive
14:07:11 <Kevin L™ 🌵> bye
14:07:25 <Ryan (desk)> Kevin, saw your email today. I'll get to it tomorrow.
14:07:34 <Joe> three rivers stadium, soon to be 4 rivers stadium if P Rivers joins the Steelers
14:07:36 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Thanks
14:07:45 <Ryan (desk)> Been a crazy week here and have not had much chance for managing that.
14:08:02 <Ryan (desk)> Three Rivers is gone, Joe.
14:08:25 <Ryan (desk)> Imploded it over a decade ago I think. Its Heinz Field now, and PNC park.
14:10:14 <Joe> I haven't kept up :)
14:13:00 <Dave from B™> hahah Joe....you had me fooled
14:13:20 <Joe> :)
14:15:13 <Joe> Turban Or Grand ?
14:15:37 <Joe> Or nothing
14:30:13 <ynpvisitor70> What did you all do to the bees
14:31:00 <Dave from B™> Hopefully, before dark
14:31:07 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Dave ran over them.
14:31:39 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Then Craig backed over the hive with his trailer.
14:34:05 <ynpvisitor70> The hive is safe unless it looks like a rock.
14:34:37 <Kevin L™ 🌵> They do look like a mailbox.
14:36:38 <Dave from B™> Like I said last night. You hit one deer and your reputation is ruined forever.
14:37:51 <Kevin L™ 🌵> That looks like a Turban
14:38:14 <Joe> yep
14:38:54 <ynpvisitor19> https://imgflip.com/i/3p4ucl
14:41:06 <ynpvisitor19> made a funny meme
14:50:36 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Bet Grand goes on the next Turban
14:55:18 <Betty> enjoy Grand and Beehive, night all
14:55:31 <JarnoO> night Betty
14:55:34 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Good knight
14:59:47 <ynpvisitor70> Well, can not wait for another minor. Enjoy.
15:09:13 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Either a late Turban or the end of Grand.
15:10:12 <Joe> looks to be the end of grand
15:11:03 <Kevin L™ 🌵> I have to agree.
15:19:10 <Dave from B™> Time to make like a banana and split. Have a great evening everyone!
15:19:30 <Kevin L™ 🌵> bye
15:20:05 <Dave from B™> What time is race #1 tonight
15:20:46 <Kevin L™ 🌵> I think 1730 your time
15:20:54 <Dave from B™> thanks
15:21:56 <Kevin L™ 🌵> We have 2 TVs hooked up for the short track races and the Daytona duals.
15:28:43 <Joe> was that rift??
15:29:07 <Kevin L™ 🌵> I don't know.
15:29:31 <LindaG> I thought maybe there was a rift this morning, mentioned it but no one saw it.
15:31:09 <Joe> Daisy
15:31:59 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Daisy blends into Castle so well.
15:33:38 <Joe> and that makes it extremely difficult at night
15:38:22 <Joe> Lion is getting ready,
15:45:56 <Joe> About 1830 it will be totally dark until about 2330
15:57:41 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Controls released
15:58:21 <Kevin L™ 🌵> Unless something really good happens in the next 90s
15:58:29 <Joe> thanks Kevin
