Hexes in flotation

Got Hugh to go to the oasis with the tank tiles even though the weather is pretty miserable. Cold and foggy mostly.

It remains to be seen how the covering will perform. I have to admit I was disappointed in them. They're hollow and have a dab of water in each one. Or are supposed to. About a third of them had nothing inside. And even those with water should have had at least twice as much water in them so they don't blow away. Time will tell. Also so far they haven't arranged themselves very efficiently, as was claimed they would do. At least I know the evaporation has been reduced a bunch. If they blow out of the tank I'll have to cover it with netting or something.

Be sure to get your 2019 calendar before they're all sold out. The proceeds go to CMO! One month's photo (Lucifer Hummingbird) was taken at the oasis.
