Friday Sep 17 Day 107
The weather report said that today would be Sunny. I did see one small patch of blue sky which has been replaced with an unbroken cloud cover. It evidently rained very hard last night and again about 5 this morning.
There has been a major setback to the success of my venture. Both of my video cameras are refusing to work because of “condensation in the camera”. If any drops of water form inside the inner workings of the camera the camera shuts down. All I can do is seal the cameras up in plastic bags and include the moisture removing packs of silica-gel. I will have to wait a full day to see if the condensation has evaporated.
During my early morning “think” session I came up with a way to tape the road leading from the plains to Woodstock. There is a stretch of this highway that has multiple hairpin curves and is the most memorable part of the trip. Using a light weight tripod in the front seat of an Omni taxi I get the effect of riding up the mountain. It works but I cannot actually shoot any test footage because of my friendly condensation problem.
