  Holding at t-5mins.

  
  Webcast cuts out at times--rural bandwidth issue?
  
  Conversations continue in the background, as do the sounds of Chesapeake Bay night critters. 🌙
  
  Sounds of a 35 mm SLR camera? 📷 We caught a glimpse of at least one digital camera before, readout screen zoomed in on the launch complex.
  
  Still holding.

• Night has fallen. The camera's stupid autofocus keeps blurring the scene!

  Picking count back up at t-15 mins.

  
  People departing and arriving at the dock/viewing area.  Conversations in the background.  It sounds like it's a long round-trip drive for some.
  
  T- 5 minutes, source their radio.
