- Apparently, New Matamoras floods less than Marietta. Marietta's problem is that it's near where the Muskingum, Little Muskingum Rivers and the Duck Creek that meet the Ohio River there. If there's a big enough storm, all of its water is going to converge on the city.
- This is Memorial Day Weekend 2018. Today, I did some rounds looking at campground capacities and reporting them to the Buckeye Trail Association Facebook group.
- My auxiliary/ house batteries are somehow disconnected from both the generator and the cab's alternator. But I'm able to charge them now by jumping them with my car. It takes about 1hr 15min to get them full. Lightning is in the forecast for tomorrow, so I plan on tracing their power lines. It's possible that they all need to be replaced?
- The maintenance priority on the Whipple Section is blazing. We may have a marathon runner/ thru hiker come through. He's going to need the trail's navigation to become more efficient.
