Got the rocketbombplane put on a pipe and wired up for wind direction. I think I'm within 15 degrees or so. At 1:06pm, it will be half way between sunrise and sunset so the sun will make shadow of the pipe aiming due North and I can zero it in better with the shadow.

Guess I'll go climb up that ladder/crane in the bed of the F150 one more time to disconnect it from the last tunnel frame. Got some more choy and Asian greens planted out and stuck my one store bought tomato plant in the ground. Now I need to gather up all my 3 gallon pots and some buckets to stick the persimmon and elderberry seedlings in to get them by until Fall. By then I'll have a fence around the garden/tunnel area and they can go there.

Downloaded a compass graphic from wikipedia that has 8 points on it so I can get them memorized.

Then I had to go back to wikipedia to find out what the heck NO, O and SO means. Ost is German for East evidently.

I only need it for 135, 225 and 315. I already know the rest.
