Testing our camera scripts today.  It may be our only clear night so we are planning to run the cameras a bit tonight to check the exposures.  There's also a chance that we will be able to photograph the Swedish launch release.  Exciting times!  All that and a trip to the store to stock up.  We're supposed to get high winds and snow on Friday night so are concerned that with the drifting snow we may not get out right away.  

At the store, I was trying to determine which container had sour cream (Taco Thursday) and realized that the woman who was trying to help me was using a translator app from Norwegian to Russian.  Seemed surprised that I wasn't Russian, for some reason.  Anyway, I think I chose the right one.  We will see.  

Excellent chicken tacos!  Neither one of us is much into cooking so it's a bit of a free for all.  It was indeed sour cream!

The Swedish launch was canceled, due to high winds.  We face similar problems once our launch window opens, unfortunately.  

The weather forecast for tomorrow, for our site, is not great.  56 mph winds are predicted, followed by snow.  We will bring in our orange camera boxes, as a precaution.
