[Geysers] Geyser report May 2

[TSBryan at aol.com]

Arrived at the Inn parking lot at 0738 and departed at roughly 1345 as  there 
were things that I had to get done here in town before 4. Got 'er done  again.
 
Biscuit Basin is presently closed -- since last evening, a new carcass near  
Jewel is being enjoyed by a griz today... Gazers present as of this afternoon  
were Steve Eide and Darrell and Ann Scharf.
 
A few scattered Plumes gave intervals of 60, 120/2, and 61 minutes.
 
To yesterday's 0539 Beehive, add last evening 2034wc (interval 14h 55m)  then 
today's Beehive's Indicator 1255, Beehive 1308 (interval 16h 34m). Note:  the 
"West Bubblers" were not active at any time before this eruption, nor during  
the eruption.
 
Lion 0852 initial, 1016, and 1132 minor. That was it, a series of only  three.
 
Aurum 1103
 
Castle was 0210E major, so I wasn't around for this afternoon's  performance.
 
Sawmill was 0738ie and off at 0816, on again at 0901 until after 1100 or  so.
 
Penta washed my marker sometime between yesterday 1300 and this morning  0830.
 
West Triplet Yellow Intermittent Spring was just that this morning.
 
Grand 0338E and 1304 (2B) -- we were on the Beehive "Overlook" for that  one.
I spent a few minutes in the VC and pulled the Grand times that were  
downloaded -- complete record from April 18 to today with two missing eruptions  
times. The total is 38 intervals. Mean = 8h 24m 24s, short = 6h 18m (4/30), long  
= 10h 46m (4/27). Use 8 1/2 +/- 2 hours for predictions and you'd miss 3 of 
the  38 (10:46, 10:32, and 6:18).
 
I never made it down basin this morning due to hoards (well, too many  
anyhow) bison along the boardwalk, and I caught only one Daisy steam cloud  (1221), 
no Oblong, and Grotto off until I saw it 1104ie and off by 1215.
 
Steve got Fountain at 1111.
