Marked improvement in sign today; and production reflected such. I wouldn't go as far to say that it met our high aspirations, but by the current standards of success we were pleased to see the area surrounding the island come to life, and to have something to work on. Right now every one landed counts big time, and is sincerely appreciated. There were about thirty of those apprecialble moments by the time darkness fell. That's thirty more than we had at dawn. Success.

So comes the final day tomorrow. As diverse as conditions around here have been there is no telling what may be. Just about every day thus far has been vastly different. I expect the same tomorrow; hoping of course that the difference will be beneficial to our cause.
