Ready to go

Today we finished up rigging all the kit, tested everything and did a brief but brilliant flight around Crazy Horse - which is this rather epic stone carving of the indian chief. One day its' going to be a massive statue of the fellow riding a horse. But apparently they've run out of money...

The heat in this part of the world is staggering. A solid 35 degrees yesterday, which is fine if you're at the beach, but a killer to work in. Oh well, tomorrow should be fun flying around in a plexiglass greenhouse! Might have to get the shorts out.

Food finally beat me at lunch time. 4 eggs, 4 bacon, 4 hash brown and FOUR pancakes with syrup. Dinner plate sized ones. Those on their own would have been enough... I'm going to be coming home rather fat at this rate!

Saw a wild Chipmunk, and found one of the best driving roads in the world. If we have a day off, I may have to rent a car just to go and drive it... it was staggeringly good!

Real work begins tomorrow....
