On the way...!

Hello thar!

Starting out to be a good competition time -- or at least it will be once we get there. We have yet to get our t-shirts, but we do have a design (and an awesome one, to boot), and hopefully we'll happen upon a shirt/clothing shop with a design feature to go to and get them done!

On a better hand, one a lot more positive, we shipped the robot! All 115 pounds of it, in fact. We sent it on Tuesday, after two of our best engineers left to go ice fishing, three of our best "everything imps" were sick, and our safety captain was gone on a trip to southern Minnesota. We were left with our programmer and our mentor to load up the robot and bring it to the dock to be shipped out at noon.

At the moment, we are building the last minute things: the minibot, and the driver's station. We also have to pack all of our extra things -- a list of all our things on the robot -- just in case anything breaks.

Well, that's all for now for an update!

STEVE.
