Jason Sawyer (inside), Ted Parvu (back to camera), Jim Stroner (right) assemble a den shed - Nov 20, 2011With the temperature at 3 F, the person who should have known better wasn’t dressed for the long hours of work in the cold. Assembling one of the Den Cam sheds late today, the Old Bearman was shivering. He said, “The cold just got to me. It wasn’t even windy. Maybe I wasn’t working hard enough. “ He said, “Jim Stroner, Jason Sawyer (back for the weekend), and new Ted Parvu worked like demons. They seemed like heroes working away as I tried to stop shivering and warm my numb fingers and toes. Next time I’ll dress better so I’m not the weak link. I should know better. And I feel sorry that Jason wrecked his side-mirror on that narrow road.”
This den shed will house the equipment for the Lily & Faith Den Cam. The shed is assembled--complete with heat and solar panel charged batteries. It awaits the camera equipment from PixController.
It’s a short update tonight as it’s after 9 PM and the guys just came in from the woods to eat and thaw out. Sue’s REALLY glad she didn’t go with them!
Thank you for all you do.
