between relaxing

Did a bunch of things at the observatory. I did some directly and helped with other tasks.

• returned laundered items, from another member
• tested the hide-a-bed in the library; found the thin mattress and frame rail positioning uncomfortable
• considered library reorganisation for improved layout
• made up, printed, and posted new emergency phone lists
• checked the mount, telescopes, and computer in the GBO; used the dew heaters, although I wondered if they were running high (hot) enough; wondered at improving the pointing model
• discussed confusion with winter parking map, in reference to 5th Line
• righted the BBQ, inspected it for damage, carefully detached the cover from the ground
• took measurements in the garage for the locker project
• discussed using the spare solid wood doors for the lockers
• warmed the top lock on the garage door and added some lock de-icer; it should be refastened
• inspected the MODLs 
• inspected the satellite and radio dishes on site; found a LNB receiver
• removed power from the faulty camera
• adjusted camera security system software slightly so to reduce annoyances
• discussed next steps for the dorm room, library, and white light cafe organisation
• moved a camera tripod from the GBO to the house for members to use
• received the "blankets-in-a-bag" for member use; discussed items needed to complete kits
• used the new slow cooker, noting the "clips" on each side of the lid are for transport only
• did some quick on-site tests of the well water
• took a detailed inventory of supplies, general foodstuffs, spices, work party items, etc.
• delivered a thank-you item to our neighbour for clearing parking spaces

Overheard a discussion to replace the GBO roof motor. Good idea.
