Progress and little worms

Marie, I love your baby worms! Larger than sand trout, at the stage
where they are eating each other.

On the build front, we figured out the Big Question, which we've been
scratching out heads about for months. How to open and close the mouth
easily? BenK's idea and Ted's model and some kibitzing and TADA!
Perfect! Two ropes and two pulleys and it's working. Piece of cake.
See BenK's video.

We had a short day working on the lower rib frame. Ted and BenK threw
in on it and we chowed on Cary's spagetti. Rain chased us away.

Big day Thursday, it's now crunch time and we need all hands on deck
Thursday-Sunday. If you can sew, or cook, or mix drinks, or work metal,
or zip-tie, or wire, or just kibbitz and add to the energy, this is it.
We won't make it there without you. Much glorious fun awaits us!
