Jon Wood Astronomy Field Improvements

12 May, 2011 (07:01) | ALERTS | By: tramakers

In the afternoon of the 11th, between the Solar Event and the Evening event with the Yargo Elementary School, Frank and Theo made their way to the Jon Wood Field for some driveway improvements. Frank brought his tractor and scraper and very nicely removed the bumps and gullies out of the driveway, while Theo compacted the loose dirt a bit by driving over it with his truck. Needless to say we needed a shower very badly after this dusty mission. We have a load of gravel scheduled for today, so it does not all wash out again. (I can’t believe how the cost of gravel has increased since I build my house 7 years ago)
This brings us a little closer to the dedication of the field to Jon.
Clear Skies,
Theo Ramakers
