Thanks for your postings, Joe! It's always interesting to see what goes on "off camera". Helps all of us better appreciate what the Friends are accomplishing.

Currently work on the tipple is not scheduled for this year according to the FIDO list.

I talked to Joe on the phone the other day, and he said he saw the tipple in operation. Hopefully he got some video.

The date on that video is 2014, so was it almost 3 years ago that the buckets were running??
