11/23/2006 - A THANKSGIVING ERECTION
I think that one thing I'm thankful for on this Thanksgiving is the huge erection taking shape out in the woods. Here, the observatory walls go up and finally stand erect. Now, to start shoring up the erection so it stays up indefinitely and building the infrastructure to support the retractable roof. The erection has an opening on the top, one which faces south and is aligned with the equatorial plane, averaged for seasons.
The observatory now has a name: St. Wiggles Observatory. This name hearkens back many years to when my kids were very young and pays tribute to St. Wiggles, patron saint of the 2Fellers.
As this blog was migrated from my previous blog, I've archived comments below. Feel free to leave a comment!
All hail St. Wiggles! May this erection be unflagging and everlasting! Though if this erection persists for more than four hours, a medical doctor should be consulted. Heh. :P
