<Katie š»> I opened it up again. Not likely needed, but...
09:51:19
<LindaG (11)> Katie š», thx
09:51:26
<Micah> I did a visit in May of Last year, so it's been about a year and a half.
09:51:48
<Micah> I try to visit at least every year. Gotta try to keep consistent visits in place in my GOSA role.
09:51:52
<LindaG (11)> Micah, too long :)
09:51:59
<Micah> I agree.
09:52:14
<Micah> It's been torture watching all the fun on Geyser Hill this summer.
09:52:29
<LindaG (11)> Micah, I'll be there.soon, just about a year
09:52:38
<Micah> Excellent.
09:52:56
<LindaG (11)> Micah, yeah lot of good stuff happened
09:52:59
<CalebD> I will be there in early october
09:53:11
<LindaG (11)> CalebD, :thumbsup:
09:53:16
<Mike J> Micah, I'm planning on September, but I think it will be about a week before you get there. Probably just as well. You know me, I'd just want to talk GOSA business.
09:53:29
<Micah> LOL.
09:54:49
<Micah> Yeah I wish I could swing a labor day visit, but I need to be present at my work to help with the crowds on big holidays
09:56:15
<Micah> Daisy
09:59:17
<CraigC> hey geeks
09:59:28
<CalebD> Hi CraigC
09:59:35
<CraigC> CalebD, hey
09:59:44
<LindaG (11)> CraigC, howdy
09:59:53
<CraigC> LindaG (11), howdy :)
10:11:22
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Back Linda
10:12:25
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Controls up
10:18:09
<LindaG (11)> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, were you having problems with controls?
10:19:24
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> No
10:19:30
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> OF
10:20:02
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> I just got back for Dr appt
10:24:49
<LindaG (11)> Kevin Lā¢ šµ, oh geez I forgot, I lost my internet
10:25:15
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> :)
10:25:18
<LindaG (11)> So Katie picked up
10:25:50
<Katie š»> I stayed on until I saw the cam move since Kevin didn't say he heard Perry Mason Music. >(
10:26:23
<LindaG (11)> Katie š», Thank you
10:26:45
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> I was late for the Perry Mason music
10:29:03
<Katie š»> did you all see Nixle alert? Madison -> West Thumb emergency road closure?
10:30:19
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> What happened?
10:31:05
<LindaG (11)> I think that is the construction debris elmily had in her note this morning
10:31:13
<Katie š»> What I hear is "construction company spilled hot asphalt mixture along the road between midway geyser basin and old faithful overpass"
10:31:13
<LindaG (11)> *emily
10:31:26
<LindaG (11)> Wow
10:31:29
<Katie š»> "once the mix is off the roadway traffic flow will be restored. Hopefully later today."
10:35:03
<LindaG (11)> I wonder how you get hot asphalt mixture off the roadway
10:36:42
<Julia> I wonder if they will just spread it out and add a rock mix. They do that for temp. coatings on roads.
10:36:42
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> A loader will scrape it off
10:42:51
<Katie š»> I posted on FB, but did I tell you about the mess at the neighbor's house? Loader scraping brought it to mind...
10:44:00
<Katie š»> Anyway, water main break, inside his property (so his responsibility). $30k estimate. WHAT a MESS! We live at the end of a cul-de-sac. All of the trucks made it difficult (but not impossible - not complaining) to get to our driveway for a week.
10:44:43
<Katie š»> Then the neighbor, who maintains everything meticulously, hand swept and then hosed off the cul-de-sac MANUALLY (took at least 5 hours) on Friday.
10:47:20
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> How big is their water line? Sounds pretty excessive.
10:47:23
<Betty> morning all
10:47:34
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Hi
10:47:44
<Chancellor> Good Morning
10:48:33
<Katie š»> It's just a single family dwelling. But they had to rip up the concrete driveway and a big section of lawn
10:48:41
<Betty> hi Kevin Lā¢ šµ, Chancellor, Katie š», LindaG (11)
10:49:03
<Dave from Bā¢> Morning everyone
10:49:17
<Betty> hey Dave from Bā¢
10:49:37
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> OK that makes sense.
10:49:41
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Hi Dave
11:03:25
<Betty> just watched the capture of yesterdays NG major, that was really fun!!!
11:04:15

11:04:46
<Betty> pretty cool stuff :-)
11:07:37
<Micah> That Geyser is so cool.
11:09:05
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> I caught one in basin once. Even when you expect it the thing surprises you.
11:18:28

<Kat (T-8)> OF
12:05:30
<Jeff> i just asked one of the people at the store if theyre doing shakes to confirm cause i know last year we didnt do them for whatever reason
12:06:10
<Betty> hi Jeff
12:06:13
<3> I heard they were gone forever
12:06:45
<Betty> hi Kat (T-8), linda, 3
12:06:55
<Jeff> i never heard that but i still talk to the fountain manager
12:07:19
<3> I would love to be wrong about that...
12:07:59
<Jeff> im not expecting a quick response though cause the fountain manager is running the fountain at lower and upper
12:08:50
<Dave from Bā¢> Too much labor for shakes?
12:09:19
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Bobcat by OF
12:09:43
<Jeff> i think part of them not doing it last year was lack of staff and i wouldnt know why they wouldnt bring them back this year unless it came from higher up in the company
12:13:03
<Kat (T-8)> Betty, hi!

<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> I think Grand is asleep
15:18:04
<3> no Grand...
15:18:11
<3> oh well
15:18:31
<Micah (lurking)> Time to set another 15 minute timer and plug away at this article some more!
15:18:44
<KorbenC> Hi Micah
15:18:49
<KorbenC> I see no Grand yet :(
15:18:54
<Micah (lurking)> Hey Korben
15:55:25
<Micah (lurking)> Steam from Old Tardy's drain area? Or maybe Slurp?
15:55:49
<KorbenC> could also just be Crystal steaming
15:56:01
<KorbenC> alost 9hrs into Grand
15:56:36
<Micah (lurking)> Ah the good ol' long Grand sits, gotta love it.
16:12:18
<Micah (lurking)> Little Anemone ie :)
16:15:47
<Micah (lurking)> When I was doing my big long sits, the "typical" eruption of Little was 2-3 minutes.
16:16:42
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> With or without hazelnuts?
16:19:59
<Micah (lurking)> Hee-haw
16:20:45
<CalebD> Micah (lurking), It also sometimes has 30s ones a few minutes after anemone big
16:21:38
<Micah (lurking)> Yeah. I need to do another prolonged sit there this year.
16:21:46
<Micah (lurking)> 2014 was fun.
16:23:05
<Kevin Lā¢ šµ> Looks like the Grand crowds are a bit soggy
16:38:29
<DanS (working)> Sticking it out in the pouring rain for a stamy one burst Grand - that's Geyser gazing for ya!
16:39:49
<KorbenC> D9/G1C probably? (guessing on G and C)
16:40:08
<KorbenC> No, its gotta be D9/G1Q
17:07:22
<CalebD> CalebD
17:07:31
<CalebD> Opps
17:26:53
<3> so the rain finally came
17:57:07
<CalebD(1)> They need to update the Refrance picture on the NPS Webcams page, it shows Oblong as Giant
17:57:57
<CalebD(1)> And they shoudl add Sawmill & Oblong
19:10:08
<KorbenC> FAN AND MORTAR
19:10:09
<KorbenC> .
19:10:10
<KorbenC> .
19:10:13
<KorbenC> Nope
19:10:14
<KorbenC> Riverside
19:10:17
<KorbenC> Nevermind :P
19:10:44
<KorbenC> The amount of steam made my mind take a blank
19:49:43
<3> Grand was a 2 burst! D10/T2Q
