mia_mcdavid called this evening. Things are going OK down there. Everybody overslept this morning so they had to scramble to be ready, but they made it. Nobody has frozen to death.

Mia has no internet access. All she has is her cell phone, with an extra battery. That is not nearly enough to keep it on all the time through the long weekend. So she has it off most of the day to conserve the charge. This limits communication. It is hard for me, and I am sure it is hard for her.
