Note
Slept horribly last night, aided by strange bed and noisy neighbors.
Sandy and I spent the bulk of morning and part of the afternoon at the event site to get a plan in place on setting up the screens for the projectors for the results display.
The white flannel panels I brought with me were too porous for use outside, even under the shelter. So, it was off to Lowe's to figure out an alternative. After looking at drop cloths, tarps, and shower curtains, Sandy got us over to the window shade area, and with the help of the service manager, we settled on three beige shades that were full blackout. Picked up some clamps and string and headed back to the park. A test run showed that these would work as long as they were weighted down at the bottom, so we solicited Mary for some 5 gallon buckets for tomorrow.
Back to the hotel for a rest and then off to the model.

5 PM
Orienteering race (Model event) 37:58 [3] *** 2.4 km (15:49 / km) +106m 12:57 / km
shoes: Red Fish

Not sure how much I would get out this weekend, so I ran the model event like a race. Fun sprint like course with 12 controls. Wish I had worn leg coverings, but otherwise, lots of fun!

Jogged around in the sloppiness with Sandy to cool down (for me), while Sandy stretched her legs some since she had walked just a portion of the model.
