Sunday: MORNING DIG CANCELLED DUE TO RAIN, AFTERNOON TBD
It's already wet and there is a nasty looking radar blob of rain heading for us this morning, probably hit mid-morning, so this morning's session from 9AM-12PM is cancelled. The afternoon has less of a chance of showers so we MAY be on-site 1-4PM. I will post an update here before heading over, or not heading over.
