Even though the weather for tomorrow has improved since the weekend forecast, the outlook is still rain for Friday and Saturday.  Earlier forecasts initially showed sleet and rain with winds near 20 mph for tomorrow with heavy rain through the weekend.  At any rate, we had to make a decision on Sunday and the trip was cancelled.

The team was last on the island on March 16 and a full year will likely have elapsed since then before the next visit. Tom and John are scheduling their visit as soon as all factors permit.

All arrangements are made for a March 10 to March 12 visit!  At this stage, we are just watching the weather.   My plan is to hire a canoe and to visit the island as many of these days as possible.  David has managed a nice overall tower model from the March 2015 data and I will try to get a really solid, complete model of the vault ... to merge into the larger model.  Likewise, I will try to get more detailed models of the windows and other features to merge into the model.  

The key question will be whether the wind makes passage from shore to island via canoe possible safely.  I can tolerate the cold and rain.

We are still hoping that Tom Addyman and John Sanders can make it out for further building assessment soon, but that is only a remote possibility at this stage ... so I will focus on the photogrammetry and modeling.
