Tuesday's Tale

Greetings,

It's another surprisingly moderate day in Catacamas. The temperature is only in the upper 80s. The engineering squads all made it to Cedeco safely and are radioing back for some miscellaneous supplies. The word is the projects are off to a good start....well except for the repeater tower. We're still waiting on the airline to decide to get the rest of the parts here (like the battery and the tower itself). John Pettit and Roni left for Teguc a short while ago. The hope is the parts are on a truck they're going to meet. The parts will hopefully be back here tonight and in the mountains sometime tomorrow. Long live El Loro!!!

OK, I'll confess I may have some responsibilty for the parts being delayed. I was assigned the battery (which according the the airline scales weighed something like 74.8 lbs.) After lugging it all of maybe 20 feet up to the check in, I was really hoping for someway out of carrying it through Teguc's airport......

Fouss
