Contractors have done some more dome work this morning, but ran into a snag where the provided dome sealant is frozen in the tube. They assume it is just to cold but it may have also hardened up with time. In either case dome work has finished for today and they will either be back up Monday with fresh sealant or a warming solution for the Ash provided product. ___end___ GENERAL COMMENT BY berkey: Sat Oct 31 02:03:05 GMT 2015 Wrapping up for today. ___end___
