<div>Whirligig is still at it as of noon today. We saw an eruption exactly matching what Scott describes as we were descending the high trail. I idiotically failed to get an exact time -- sorry -- but then sat at the pool for several hours waiting for a follow-up (and, I guess, doing penance for not getting a time). By the time we left at 1545, the pool had refilled but no eruption had occurred.</div> <div> </div> <div>Got some minor times and durations on Vixen too, but I'm not close to my notes as I write this, so will update tomorrow.</div> <div>-- Bill.<br><br></div> <div class="gmail_quote">On Thu, Sep 2, 2010 at 6:36 PM, <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:tsbryan@aol.com">tsbryan@aol.com</a>></span> wrote:<br> <blockquote style="BORDER-LEFT: #ccc 1px solid; MARGIN: 0px 0px 0px 0.8ex; PADDING-LEFT: 1ex" class="gmail_quote"><font color="black" size="2" face="arial"> <div>I spent the morning at Norris, mainly watching Vixen.
