I won't tell you what my day is like (although I'm writing this out on the porch in a tee-shirt). Must go and cut the grass. Damn, I hate winter. Oh wait, we don't have one. Not a real one, anyway.

<div>I am leaving tomorrow morning for Kootenay Lake, I am doing a test dive. I am tired of waiting for winter to let go, I cant work on my barge. Gamma is all loaded up and tarped up. I can test the propulsion, and dive to safe depths. I can not afford the 3k for batteries at the moment, so I have four batteries removed from my commercial truck sitting on the floor of Gamma. I have the battery box filled with 480 lbs of scrap bits of steel. It will be crowded inside :-) . I am carrying the scrubber inside the truck to keep it warm. It may be snowing out there, but that adds to the adventure. I also replaced the mbt windows with steel plates, I was intending to drop her to 1,000 feet first. I do not trust the condition of the
mbt windows to handle unknown conditions at 1,000 feet. I will leave the plates in place until I get the deep test done.</div>
