Shift Change Day

Wednesday is traditionally shift change day for summit staff.
Unfortunately, some car trouble kicked things off this morning, giving us all a little bit of a later start to the day.
After getting to the summit, our shift change meetings ensued, which encompassed most of the day. The weather was very pleasant today, with relatively light winds, sunny skies, and temperatures breaking into the 50s. Visibility also maxed out at 130 miles today, our station maximum.
Well, it’s 5 PM now, and time to unwind a bit before our volunteers dish out a delicious dinner for the crew. I can’t wait to see what they’re preparing!
