05:39:14
<J> morning Craig
05:39:30
<CraigC> J, Howdy man
05:44:46
<J> could not see castle or grand in the dark, someone was at castle at prediction tiime with a flashlight then they moved on, I was not able to see the plume
05:45:23
<CraigC> dang
05:47:10
<J> and I do not guess, either I see it or I do not:)
05:48:08
<CraigC> reliability matters
05:50:42
<J> I swung the cam to bee last night https://chat.geysertimes.org/dvr/ugb/download.php?f=ugbWebcamTime_07082024_213518.mp4
05:55:51
<CraigC> nice capture
06:01:37
<J> are you on the control screen /
06:01:59
<CraigC> no, I am on the Freecell screen on my other monitor LOL
06:03:35
<J> Nice, I see you have another life as opposed to me with this as my life :):)
06:04:13
<CraigC> yes, Freecell is very fulfilling, it has taken me to some very exotic locations
06:05:24
<CraigC> what was you going to point out if I open the control screen?
06:06:01
<CraigC> I see an animal in the meadow
06:06:20
<CraigC> Bison
06:06:45
<J> I never did get in to things like that, too slow minded for that....or it was something that i took
06:08:12
<CraigC> sawmill
06:24:19
<CraigC> riverside
06:24:22
<CraigC> ns
06:25:05
<CraigC> OF early
06:28:05
<J> I just marked the last OF as short, could not tell long/short at the time onstatic
06:28:19
<CraigC> :thumbsup:
06:29:54
<CraigC> J, my laptop screen fried during my trip, works with an ext monitor, so I need to buy one now to take with me
06:30:16
<CraigC> way cheaper than fixing it
06:31:06
<CraigC> cam took off on me
06:31:24
<J> bummer so you just need a small? monitor
06:31:37
<Kat> Can't get into cam
06:32:09
<CraigC> J, smallish, I have a 24" in my amazon cart. Is Sceptre good brand? Seems very popular
06:32:45
<CraigC> cam control screen locked up on mine
06:32:51
<CraigC> kicked out now
06:33:00
<J> I have heard they are good
06:33:20
<Kat> OK I'm in brb need more coffee
06:33:23
<CraigC> J, cool, thanks, I'll get it, then. only 84 bucks
06:33:33
<Kat> Morning J and Howdy Craig LOL
06:33:43
<CraigC> Kat, Howdy :)
06:34:28
<J> Hi Kat, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3fO44VgOS6c
06:34:50
<Kat> J, Halo :)
06:35:04
<CraigC> My Samsung smartwatch died, too. I ordered a battery replacement kit from Amazon, then broke it trying to install it
06:35:21
<J> is it getting old?
06:35:36
<CraigC> ripped a ribbon off from the motehrboard while trying to pry it out
06:35:48
<CraigC> it is 5 or 6 years old
06:36:21
<CraigC> I'll probably buy a Garmin watch now. Eric loves them, Darcie has one.
06:37:35
<J> CraigC, I do not attempt to do things like that, too small, a car battery s about my speed :)
06:37:48
<CraigC> :D
06:38:22
<J> do you have control yet
06:38:46
<CraigC> see the above scenario with the visitor stepping behind vehicle to view a bison about 30 feet away.....
06:42:24
<CraigC> I clicked out of the control screen when Kat said she logged in
06:43:08
<Kat> Kicked out
06:44:22
<CraigC> sorry I left teh view on the pathway
06:44:53
<CraigC> my screen here is a spinning circle
06:45:11
<J> clothes
06:45:48
<Kat> Back in but for hhow long? :)
06:47:05
<Kat> That's how long! Out again
06:49:52
<Kat> I get in and kicks me right back out! I'll send a message to Brett not sure what is going on
06:50:06
<CraigC> so some things make me chuckle that probably no one else ever thinks about... seems like most people like to see their names included when they watch a geyser, right
06:51:14
<CraigC> so gazers add their names as observers. Does someone that doesn't see their name on the entry get bothered, and then see that it says "many others" and then think, oh yay, they did add me to it
06:52:21
<Kat> CraigC, People realy care about that?
06:52:55
<Kat> Looks like cam is up but I can't get in - what's up with that?
06:53:21
<CraigC> Kat, I believe people really do care about that
06:53:41
<CraigC> but why add "many others"?
06:53:44
<Kat> Huh, who knew
06:54:12
<Kat> CraigC, there's almost always many other Haha
06:54:19
<CraigC> yeah
06:54:40
<CraigC> I should start typing htat in on my OF webcam entries
06:54:52
<Kat> CraigC, LOL
06:55:22
<CraigC> to be honest, though, I check entries to see if any of my closer friends there also caught the eruptions
06:56:07
<CraigC> if I don't see their name, I don't know any more info by reading "many others"
06:56:23
<Kat> CraigC, true
06:56:50
<Kat> Guess the person who enters wants everyone to feel included :)
07:05:05
<Kat> LC
07:10:02
<Dave from B> Or they may not no every gazer by name but want to include them
07:10:08
<Dave from B> know*
07:10:10
<Dave from B> Good morning
07:13:50
<Kat> Dave from B, good morning
07:23:06
<Kat> :daisy:
07:24:34
<CraigC> "how do you spell your name" "many other"
07:25:31
<CraigC> Dave from B, that is why it makes melaugh, do people feel included by seeing "many others" instead of their name?
07:42:17
<Dave from B> I don't care if my name is listed but I do smile when I see it.
07:42:40
<Kat> Dave from B, :)
07:43:02
<Kat> Dave from B, I smiled when I saw your name on a Bee entry
08:06:54
<Kat> LC
08:29:11
<Kat> :lion:
08:34:48
<Kat> LC
08:36:03
<Dave from B> Thanks, Kat:)
08:36:25
<Kat> Dave from B, :)
08:40:32
<Kat> and crowd gathers at Bee
08:41:17
<Kat> moving on
08:47:01
<J> many others signifies visitors and other unknowns, not just the named gazers IMHO
08:53:47
<Dave from B> just got my BH 0649 7/8 text
08:54:55
<Kat> Dave from B, lol
08:55:27
<Kat> They have been a bit delayed!
08:56:31
<Kat> Sawmill off
09:09:46
<Kat> :daisy:
09:39:33
<Kat> OF
09:39:51
<J> Kat, have you been kicked out of the controls today?
09:40:20
<Kat> J, I whole bunch worst day in a long time!
09:41:46
<J> thank you, I was wondering if it was just my internet or if others were affected.
09:43:33
<Kat> I thought it was my internet or computer too - but it's the cam, it freezes up and kicks me out - looks like it is still working on GT page but has kicked me off
09:44:54
<Kat> J, sometimes it freezes and then unfreezes
09:47:36
<J> ok, that is what I am seeing also, plus the fact that my ISP is 'trying' to fix my DSL so thank you for the info
09:48:03
<Kat> J, sure
09:50:12
<J> they think that the underground cable that feeds the neighborhood may be bad, they "plan" to fix that soon.
09:50:45
<Kat> J, interesting, fixing it would be gteat!
09:51:35
<J> there is a plan to put fiber in in 26 or 27 so they may do nothing at all.
09:52:17
<Kat> That would be a long time to struggle with the cam
09:54:38
<J> :) my Starlink should be here next week so if it works, I may not need the DSL at all :)
09:55:09
<Kat> J, :thumbsup: let me know how it works
09:55:21
<J> will do
10:02:22
<Kat> :lion:
10:16:14
<Kat> Sawmill
10:17:57
<Kat> Sawmill start 1012
10:31:29
<Kat> Tardy
10:48:29
<Kat> OF
10:54:37
<Kat> :daisy:
10:55:55
<Kat> I need to leave for a quick appt. I will be back and jump back on if needed!
10:57:11
<Kat> Going to leave it on wide
10:57:38
<159> waves on grand
10:57:51
<Kat> thx
10:58:21
<Kat> :grand:
10:59:21
<Kat> cam gone wild!
11:05:05
<Kat> 2nd?
11:09:18
<Kat> be back
11:16:51
<Dave from B> Lion late ie
11:18:40
<asdf> erm.. churn?
11:34:57
<Pholli> Churn? Any video?
11:35:59
<KorbenC> I have alot of doubts that it was Churn, esspecially with an in basin 1034 Sawmill note. Bursting from a low pool seems more likely to me.
11:54:18
<Ryan> afternoon
11:55:22
<Ryan> Came here for a break and distraction from the empty house.
11:55:28
<Ryan> How is everyone's day going?
11:56:37
<Dave from B> I hope you are doing better than the cam, Ryan
12:01:53
<Dave from B> I guee I'm up.
12:02:00
<Dave from B> guess*
12:05:11
<Ryan> In the spectrum of good days and bad, today is definitely bad. I am getting over COVID, work is a mess, and we lost Spike.
12:05:30
<Ryan> To say I am a wreck is an understatement.
12:05:32
<Dave from B> Sorry to hear that Ryan
12:05:47
<Dave from B> It is pretty quiet in here this time of the day
12:10:35
<Ryan> i see that. What are we waiting on right now? Beehive?
12:12:03
<Dave from B> BH, OF not much going on. Lion is done. Sawmill in a drain
12:13:58
<Ryan> One of those dead times when its appropriate to take a nap
12:14:35
<Dave from B> A chance of a Rocket major in the nea future
12:15:27
<Ryan> How long has Rocket been waiting for its majors?
12:16:29
<Dave from B> 30min to 90
12:18:04
<Ryan> We are nicely in the window then
12:19:59
<Ryan> That is Grotto steam now I guess. Where is Rocket in comparison
12:20:21
<Dave from B> That could have been it
12:20:32
<Ryan> I kind of wondered, that was a lot of steam
12:20:38
<Ryan> for 74 degrees at least
12:21:56
<Kilgore> Joe, you here?
12:39:44
<Ryan> Thats an early Daisy
12:40:10
<Ryan> Oh, nvm.
12:40:16
<Ryan> I read the GT prediction
12:47:57
<Dave from B> Riverside
13:59:12
<Kat> I jst moved cam to OF, who was driving?
13:59:43
<Kat> I was coming back earlier but it's a long story!
14:03:40
<Dave from B> I was driving but I'm done now. Sorry.
14:05:00
<Kat> Dave from B, it's fine, got to the lab and had left my lab slip home! Then got caught in a nasty rainstorm and I'm soaked! Thx for helping
14:07:39

14:17:52
<Ryan> Hi Betty
14:18:18
<Betty> heyho Ryan :)
14:19:03

<Kat> J, yw
14:27:22
<Betty> hi J
14:27:38
<J> Hello Betty
14:28:24
<Dave from B> Daisy should have happened already
14:33:11
<linda> thx for txt
14:33:33

14:34:27
<linda> raven snuck in a bee bath
14:35:09
<Kat> linda, hi
14:35:19
<linda> Kat, hi
14:36:05
<Ryan> I am finally eyeballing a return to the park next August.
14:36:36
<Dave from B> That's good to hear Ryan
14:36:48
<Ryan> I now work on not just one, or two, but a whipping six caves in the Bighorns. Likely going out there for three weeks. 10 days in the bighorns and 10 days in Yellowstone.
14:37:37
<Ryan> I look forward to taking my 4x5 out with me
14:37:54
<Dave from B> Work on caves? What does that mean?
14:38:55
<Ryan> I am drawing the maps of Spanish Point, Bighorn, and Horsetheif Caves, and I participate in the exploration and survey of Tres Charros, Great X, and one other.
14:39:32
<Dave from B> Drawing for who?
14:39:43
<Kat> Guess no one caught Daisy :(
14:39:53
<Ryan> Depends, for Spanish Point its the USFS.
14:40:09
<Kat> thx betty
14:40:15
<Ryan> Bighorn is for.... I am not 100% sure actually who that stakeholder is.
14:40:19
<Ryan> Horsetheif is BLM
14:40:33
<Ryan> Great X is owned by the NSS, the other two are both USFS
14:44:03
<Dave from B> That sounds fun
14:44:44
<Ryan> It is fun. Lots of fun stuff to learn about in all cases
14:51:32
<Betty> Sawmill
14:54:31
<Kat> got kicked off cam again
14:55:19
<Kat> won't let me back in yet
14:55:20
<Betty> headed out, night all
14:55:33
<Kat> Betty, have a good night
14:56:57
<J> Kat, If you think it is a power issue, phone Brett he will reset it
14:57:16
<linda> uhoh
14:57:51
<Kat> I'll do that
14:59:50
<Kat> Sent message to Brett
15:02:04
<Kat> Cam down - not letting me in!
15:26:27
<Greg 🤠> Good afternoon
15:26:44
<Greg 🤠> I said that to fast, cam down
15:27:58
<Greg 🤠> I'll check back later
15:34:19
<Kat> Greg 🤠, I sent a message to Brett, haven't heard back yet!
16:05:10
<Greg 🤠> Thank you Kat, I'll keep checking in
16:37:03
<Kat1> Heard back from Brett, cam may have overheated, he's looking into it. Hopefully when it cools it will come back up. He reset several times to no avail! We'll see what halogens.
16:37:35
<Kat1> Happens*
16:37:46
<Greg 🤠> Thanks for the update Kat
16:38:37
<Greg 🤠> Brett emailed cam ops as well.
18:08:42
<Greg 🤠> I am going to run some errands, I will check back later to see if the cam is up
