 Got the usual Notice of Impending Doom for tomorrow. 0500 - 1100 CDT.
 I might sleep late. I always wondered what it would be like to get woken up by a Raptor.
Those who danced were thought to be quite insane by those who couldn't hear the music.

What’s happening tomorrow w/ SN8? While cryos are scheduled for Sun- Wed, somehow rumor was we’d hear Raptor roars tomorrow... Is that true?

Some challenges with high winds. Looks like Sunday for static fire.
