Activities
- 2021-10-06 12:00 AK DT -- changed liquids in the geonor.  8 liters 60/40 mix & 1 bottle baby oil
- Removed like 5.3 gallons
- (Which means that last year's mix amount for antifreeze was more than necessary). 5.3 gallons removed = Freezing point of bucket around -25C
 
 - 8 liters mix = 72.7 cm liquid with freezing point @ -40
- Realistically we only need the 60/40 mix to go to -40 by around April 1 so 72.7cm is extreme overkill and maybe I'll reduce the volumes down the road.
 
 - Re leveled stand, too.
 
 - Removed like 5.3 gallons
 - Plugged in tipping bucket heater
 - Remove Forest Floor LI7200
 - Swap Tower LI7200 (But need to update the calibration info still)
 - Add an HDMI switch for monitor.
 - Swap out top 2 anemometers
