• We woke early and did a fast hike up honey hollow.. 
  Work today was busy and fun.. THen tonight we had a fluffy meetup.. THe idea was to discuss how this burn went.. and discuss what was next for Fluffy. 
  
  it was great to have everyone together again.  We ate then  got down to business.
  
  It was fun to relive soem stories from  the playa….  we discussed what worked and what didnt for the camp and fo fluffy. Overall, people agreed that fluffy performed well We agreed we need to do soem work on the light patterns we are using.. which should be fun to do
  
  the biggest discussion was abotu how much  work we might take on .. lots of discussions includeing proposals to try to clean the dust oout of the clouds.. all the way up to rebuilding the clouds completely/ We have soem exeriemtns to do aroudn cleaning.. but i’m hopeing we dont commit to any major rework beyond tha.t. I don t thingk people have the energy or time for another compelte summer of work
  
  we also discussed where fluffy should live..: there are 2 choices we discussed: 
  
  a) one thought was to continue business as usual.. which involves.  Duane paying rent to the warehouse in charlotte where flufdfy is parked.. , doing soem local events and transporting her back and forth to the playa each year.. .
  
  b)THe other thoguht is to take her out to playa next year and find a place to park her there.. that would dramatically reduce the cost of rent here in VT and the cost/effort of getting her out and back..   The down side would be that anything beyond basic maintenance would be hard to do remotely.. 
  
  the agreement (I think) is to  try a) this year and see how qe feel about b) when the burn come around late summer..
