 +       * Try to get Yates fixed as early as possible. Try to visit it on Friday before the office closes. Use Friday getting everything together. Then the weather may drive when you can do Yates. Put fixing Yates for Saturday in the workplan, adjust the other work correspondingly.
 +       * Could try to get some bales of hay or straw to throw on top of the surface sensors, to minimize the impact of the sun/heat during the summer. The sand bags we used disintegrated over time, so may have to revisit this. Mulch could be a good solution too.

-  -   * Weight Drop Source Processing update {{:groups:homestake:meetings:april7weightdroptiming.pptx|}}+    * Weight Drop Source Processing update {{:groups:homestake:meetings:april7weightdroptiming.pptx|}}: Gary developed a technique to estimate the time delay between successive shots. Then use a shot that is nearest to one of our existing stations (which have absolute time) to get the absolute time for all the shots in that array.
